An Iranian official says at least 35 U.S. targets, including warships and Tel Aviv, have been identified for retaliatory strikes as Lebanon’s Hezbollah tell Iraqi soldiers to leave U.S. bases and the White House say an attack can happen ‘within weeks.’

The potential threat was raised by General Gholamali Abuhamzeh, the commander of the Guards in the southern province of Kerman, one day after the top military leader was killed at the Baghdad International Airport.

Hezbollah, an Islamic political and militant group, has also warned Iraqi soldiers to stay at least one kilometer away from U.S. military bases from Sunday onwards.
