According to US intelligence, Israel is planning strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities this year and is counting on Washington's support.
Israel has repeatedly stated its intention to attack Iran's nuclear facilities to prevent the country from developing nuclear weapons.
Israel is preparing serious strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. Jerusalem is trying to use its current advantage in the confrontation. This was reported on Wednesday, February 12, by The World Street Journal, citing an analysis of US intelligence data.
Citing officials familiar with the analysis, the publication notes that in the first days of the Trump administration, American intelligence agencies prepared a report in which they came to this conclusion.
Two US officials said US President Donald Trump is more likely than Biden to support such strikes. The US military said the attacks would likely require US support and weapons.
In addition, Trump fears that his window to prevent Iran from building a nuclear bomb is narrowing, as Iran has intensified diplomatic contacts with Russia to accelerate the creation of nuclear weapons.
As you know, according to the IAEA, Iran has 200 kilograms of uranium enriched to 60% purity. This amount of material, if further enriched to 90%, could potentially be enough to make five nuclear warheads.
US President Donald Trump said the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas should be scrapped if Hamas does not release all hostages held in Gaza by noon Saturday.
