The Israeli government appears to be considering how to respond to a recent missile and drone attack conducted by Iran.

Israeli Defense Forces Spokesperson Daniel Hagari said on Tuesday they will act in the place and time they choose.

Reuters news agency reported that the country's war cabinet had postponed a meeting from Tuesday to Wednesday.

The Tuesday edition of the Wall Street Journal said "long-simmering grudges and arguments over how best to fight Hamas have soured relations" between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and former Defense Minister Benny Gantz. They are members of the war cabinet.

The report said the three men are at odds over "how to launch a decisive military push, free Israel's hostages and govern" the postwar Gaza Strip.

It noted, "Now, they also must make one of the biggest decisions the country has ever faced: how to respond to Iran's first-ever direct attack on Israeli territory."

Meanwhile, multiple Israeli media outlets on Tuesday reported on the results of an opinion poll conducted by the Hebrew University.

The survey reportedly showed that 74 percent of the respondents said they oppose a counterstrike on Iran if it undermines Israel's security alliance with its allies.

By contrast, 26 percent were reportedly in favor of such a countermeasure even if it damages the country's ties with allies.
