"If not now, when?", writes Naftali Bennett on X and urges Israel's government to immediately attack the Iranian regime and the country's nuclear facilities.

"We have the obligation. We have the need. We have the capacity. We have the right", he writes.

Earlier on Tuesday, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned Israel against such attacks.

"Any attack on infrastructure in Iran will provoke an even stronger response", said Araghchi in a statement according to state TV.

The statement came after Israel announced that the country is preparing a response to Iran's attack on October 1.

On Monday, Araghchi said that Iran does not want war in the region. A few days earlier, US President Joe Biden warned Israel against targeting oil facilities in Iran, which is one of the world's largest producers of crude oil.

Abbas Araghchi is scheduled to visit several countries in the coming days, including Saudi Arabia.

A warning also comes from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard that attacks on Iran's nuclear power or energy facilities would mean that Israel has crossed a "red line".
