What Is Known

U.S. intelligence concluded that Israel has been seriously discussing possible attacks on Iran’s nuclear sites and expects support from Donald Trump’s administration. Israeli officials believe Washington will join the operation.

Military experts argue that Israel would require American assistance, particularly in supplying weapons and intelligence data, to carry out such an attack.

Why Is Israel Planning an Attack?

Israeli authorities fear that Iran is getting closer to developing nuclear weapons and believe that diplomatic agreements are ineffective. Israel argues that once sanctions are lifted, Tehran will inevitably resume its nuclear weapons program, regardless of international treaties.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long advocated for preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear capabilities, making it a cornerstone of his policy.

Why Can’t Israel Strike Alone?

Iran’s nuclear facilities are spread across the country, with many located underground or in mountainous regions. In the past, Israel successfully destroyed nuclear reactors in Iraq and Syria, but Iran has learned from their mistakes and significantly fortified its sites.

To carry out an attack, Israel would need U.S.-supplied weapons capable of penetrating Iran’s defenses, including bunker-busting bombs specifically designed for underground targets.

What Happens Next?

The Trump administration is weighing two options: increasing diplomatic pressure on Iran or opting for military action. If Israel convinces the U.S. that military intervention is necessary, the Middle East could face another major escalation.

The U.S. has not made a final decision yet, but if Israel proceeds with a strike, the consequences could be unpredictable.
