Due to massive threats of attack from its sworn enemies, Israel's security forces are on high alert.
Ahead of a terrifying Iranian attack, GPS use has been disrupted in large parts of Israel. The Times of Israel newspaper and the Ynet news portal reported that not only areas near the border with Lebanon were affected, but also populated regions in the center of the country, citing users.

Drivers in Israel suddenly saw on their screens that they were in the Lebanese capital Beirut, media reports.
Recall that even before Iran's major attack with hundreds of missiles and drones in April, the Israeli military announced that it had deliberately disrupted its satellite-based positioning system.
Asked about the latest GPS outage, the military now replied: "No comment."
Pointing to an imminent attack by Iran and allied militias elsewhere in the wshtw region is also the arrival in Israel of the commander in chief of the US Regional Command Centcom, General Michael Erik Kurilla. This is reported by the American news portal "Axios". Kurilla also traveled to Israel shortly before the major Iranian attack in April.
Israeli journalist Barak Ravid, citing American and Israeli sources, reports that an attack could happen as early as Monday.
Jordan tries to mediate
Given the threat of Iranian retaliation against Israel, Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman al-Safadi traveled to Tehran. Local media reports said he wanted to speak with Iran's acting foreign minister, Ali Bagheri Kani, to dissuade the country from taking military action against Israel.
According to official information from Cairo, the Foreign Minister of Egypt, Badr Abdel-Atti, in a telephone conversation with Khan, requested that all parties exercise calmness and restraint so that the situation in the Middle East does not get out of control. According to Iranian media reports, Iran has so far rejected all attempts at mediation.
Biden criticizes the killing of the leader of Hamas
According to US President Joe Biden, the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniya in the Iranian capital Tehran could make it more difficult to reach an agreement on a ceasefire and the release of hostages in the hands of the Islamist Hamas.
According to the New York Times, Biden responded to a related question in an interview with reporters, where he said: "It didn't help." In a phone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Biden expressed the view that Haniya's killing came at an inopportune time, the newspaper reported, citing a US official.

Israel is preparing for war on all fronts
Israeli security forces are said to be on high alert amid massive threats of attack from its archenemies. Israeli TV station Channel 12 reported that the attacks threatened by Iran and the Lebanese Shiite militia Hezbollah are expected to take place "on several fronts".
