Israel has vowed to retaliate to a missile strike from Iran on its territory last week, despite the US urging Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to exercise caution in a call between the two leaders on Wednesday.

Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Gallant warned that Israel's retaliation to an Iranian missile strike on its territory last week would be "lethal."

In a speech made to Israeli troops, Gallant said that the strike would catch Iran off guard, although provided no further details on the size of the allegedly planned strike.

"They will not understand what happened and how it happened,” Gallant said.

Iran fired almost 200 missiles into Israel last week after Israel intensified its airstrikes across Lebanon, killing multiple senior commanders of the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah — including its leader Hassan Nasrallah.
