Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has ordered the military to prepare for potential confrontation with the US and Israel, expanding the list of potential targets to include all American and Israeli assets. Khamenei instructed commanders of the Revolutionary Guard, army, and general staff to respond immediately and effectively to any threat without geographic limits, and to enhance Iran's strike capabilities using new technologies, according to Bloomberg on Saturday. The order follows reports that the US and Israel prepared a plan for large-scale strikes on Iran, possibly after US midterm elections on November 3, while Qatari mediators held talks in Tehran on October 30 to prevent further escalation.
