JAKARTA - A senior White House official said the United States (US) believed Iran was preparing to immediately launch a ballistic missile attack on Israel.

The United States has indications that Iran is preparing to immediately launch a ballistic missile attack on Israel, the official said.

"We actively support defense preparations to defend Israel from this attack. Direct military attacks from Iran against Israel will have severe consequences for Iran," he continued.

The US, according to officials, is ready to do anything to help Israel intercept anything Iranian-directed. These efforts would be similar to how the US offered its assistance in April, when Iran launched a drone and missile wave towards Israel, most of which was intercepted.

It is not clear the scale of the attacks that the US is expected to launch against Israel this time.
