Israel seeks UK and France support in retaliating against Iran if attacked, with the US-led coalition potentially joining.

Israel informs UK and France it expects support from them in retaliating against Iran if Iran attacks Israel, as shared by Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz during a meeting with top British and French diplomats. Israel expects France and Britain to publicly clarify to Iran that attacking Israel is unacceptable. In case of Iran's attack, the US-led coalition including the US, Britain, France, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan is expected to join Israel in both defense and attacking significant targets in Iran. However, both France and the UK have downplayed the prospect of joining Israel in such a response.
