The U.S. is “actively supporting” preparations to defend Israel against the attack, which the official said would carry “severe consequences” for Iran.

Iranian officials reportedly warned of retaliation for an Israeli strike last week that killed Hassan Nasrallah, the longtime leader of Hezbollah, a Lebanese militant group backed by Iran the U.S. has designated a terrorist organization.
