PM’s office denies reports Israel notified Iran ahead of airstrikes

Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office denies reports that Israel warned Iran through third parties not to respond to the airstrikes this morning and that it gave a general indication of what it would and wouldn’t target.

The report in the Walla news site is “false and absurd,” says the PMO.

“Israel did not notify Iran before the attack — not about the timing, not about the targets, and not about the scale of the attack.”
