Israeli cabinet to convene tonight: Haaretz

The Israeli news outlet Haaretz is reporting that the Israeli cabinet will meet in the evening, and that it is expected to discuss retaliation measures to Iran’s ballistic missile attacks.

On Wednesday, US President Joe Biden and Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held their first phone call since August, which is reported to have included talks on Israel's intended response to the Iranian attacks last week.

Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said after the call that his country's planned attack against Iran would be "deadly, precise and above all surprising".
