Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Iran is “playing with fire” after its attack on Kuwait, AFP reports.

“Iran surely knows what the [US] president has said, that if necessary, there’ll be a full-scale return to military action,” Netanyahu says in an interview with US channel CNBC when asked if there is still a ceasefire following recent attacks on Kuwait and Bahrain.

“You know, it’s the president’s decision. Israel is ready, and the US forces are ready. I think Iran should take that into account. I think they are taking it into account, but they’re playing with fire, that’s clear. “
