that was what the united states was trying hard to emphasize to our israeli counterparts. there was a meeting in the white house today where there is reportedly talking a lot about the potential operation into rafah. and according to the israeli military, a media before this attack happened, they said that a deal had been struck with the united states, that in exchange for israel not attacking into iran, that the united states would agree to an attack into rafah for the israeli military. so it remains to be seen, but it could be that this was israel's way of saying, okay, we're not going to strike back hard into iran, but you're going to also support us going into rafah, which they claim they need to win their war against hamas. so it remains to be seen what's going to happen. but what it does look like, at least initially, is that this has as remove the possibility of escalation into full scale war. >> yeah, it certainly seems to have given the iranians the ability to say we beat

we are receiving more information from the israeli army this morning indicating there are no special instructions for israeli civilians. and this points to the fact that the israelis do not believe there will be a direct response, at least immediately ,from the iranians following this strike overnight. there have been many threats throughout the past week from iranian officials saying that if a strike took place, there would be an immediate retaliation. and so israeli forces were on high alert across the country, fearing that iran might use its proxies like the houthis in yemen or hezbollah in southern lebanon to conduct a strike against israel. so far, things have been very quiet on israel's northern and southern front as the israelis are waking up to this news about a strike overnight in iran. jonathan. so, trey, putting this in perspective, it looks like we we started off here with the iranians a week or so ago, essentially telegraphing an attack on israel, then announcing that that attack was underway and saying it's coming

are hostages being held in rafah? and the israelis are trying to get to them and rescue them if possible. as for the first point, there are no really remaining hamas battalion left in rafah as it is advertised by the israeli military. there are cells of hamas fighters across gaza still nearly 200 days into this conflict. but israel has really sold this point that there are remaining battalions that must be destroyed. the structure of hamas was destroyed very quickly in the aftermath of black saturday, the october 7th massacre, where israel, in response launched a massive air campaign against gaza, followed by a ground operation. and so the israelis say they need to complete that ground operation by entering rafah. it is something they likely will do, but it will take a lot of preparation and the evacuation of these vulnerable palestinians who are currently sheltering there jonathan. >> training, standing in tel aviv, thank you very much indeed. >> with israel striking back, how concerned should we be about iran and israel's

this country and for the entire region. and there are a lot of politics at play. the americans are trying to urge the israelis not just to have restraint when it comes to iran. with that limited strike overnight, but also as they continue to operate inside gaza amid a rising civilian casualty rate there. and there is this question about if the israelis will enter gaza's southernmost city of rafah where more than 1.4 million palestinians are currently sheltering at the direction of the israeli army. and so there is a very complex situation at play here and unpredictable days ahead. absolutely. and a very serious time for the country, the region and indeed the entire world trading in tel aviv. thank you very much. >> the white house, as you would expect, has been keeping a very close eye on the israeli strikes in iran, with tensions spiking in the middle east. >> for more on reaction in washington, let's go to foxnews.com, london, kevin cole. >> good morning, kevin. morning, jonathan. moms, the word at least so

that in the back of a car there was an automatic remote controlled machine gun that killed this top nuclear scientist. and it really showed israel's over the horizon capabilities that they could target this top scientist without having anyone there manning the weapon. and so the israelis certainly have really top level intelligence inside iran. it is part of the reason in the past they've been able to gather hard evidence and information about iran's nuclear programs. >> and it is also part of the reason saw this strike, looking to send a message to the iranian regime that they know where the targets are. they're located in the site of the israeli military, and they can certainly increase the targeting inside iran if iran decides to respond to this strike overnight. jonathan? and trey, you have told us so often and so accurately that everything is connected here. so let's turn our attention to for a moment and the ongoing war there against hamas.

so who knows what the battle damage assessments and the weapons use in places like syria and iraq were allegedly potentially from the israelis as well. >> so, again, turning our attention briefly, if you don't mind, benham, to gaza, the war against hamas there. now, the idf obviously has never taken its eye off that ball over the past week when they've also been dealing with plans for iran. do you expect the offensive that prime minister netanyahu has wanted to carry out for some time now into the southern city of raqqa, which they is the last stronghold of the hamas leadership? >> do you expect that to happen shortly? >> i think there is a very interesting, at least it certainly seems the very interesting talk of a potential quid pro quo is in some way was at least tacitly aware of what this israeli targets that was doesn't necessarily have to blessed, but at least may have been aware of it. was that going to be something pocketed? would that be something limited

have said that a date is set to enter gaza, southern city of rafah, where more than 1.4 million palestinians are currently sheltering. now, the israeli military told ,the majority of those palestinians to evacuate to this southern city that along the egyptian border. and so the americans have put lot of pressure on israel not to operate in rafah without assurances those civilians will be protected. there is an extremely high civilian casualty inside gaza, and it is something that the americans have discouraging the israelis from continuing. they don't want to see this number rise. they want to ensure that that vulnerable civilian population protected. and just last week, you had president biden and top cabinet officials, including secretary of state antony blinken, and also defense secretary lloyd austin, saying it would be a mistake for israel to enter rafah. well, very quickly, they changed their tone as the intelligence started to trickle in that the iranians were planning a massive attack that ultimately would include drones and missiles against

>> the israelis clearly felt they had to take some action, but they certainly showed restraint and that would have been welcomed, one assumes, by the white. >> it will actually be welcomed by the white house. you know, president biden actually called for israel to do something short of striking inside of iran. >> well, they did striking something wrong. but -- but a very muted, very precise strike. so i think, you know, the biden folks are going to consider this a win. they're going to call it a win, probably sounds like deservedly so. and then, you know, both sides can kind of resume that now. israel, the idf, going to resume their operation in gaza, you know, unsure of what's next with with rafah, with you, a possible assault on rafah, although it looks like netanyahu is certainly insistent on doing that.

is fully in place now and could be executed at any point? absolutely. the plan has been in place for a number of weeks, and that's according to top defense officials that i've talked with here in tel aviv. >> now, israel's prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, has said two times now that the date is set to enter rafah, gaza's southernmost city, where more than point 4 million palestinians are sheltering at the direction of the israeli army after they were told to evacuate. now the biden administration was very concerned about these israeli plans and even said as recently as last week that u.s. aid to israel would be conditional on how the israelis operate for rest of their time inside gaza and how they protect civilians . the tone from the biden administration shifted as the threat from iran became more real and they could see the intelligence developing. iran was planning a massive attack against israel. well, now focus will shift
