Western sources have identified a series of new and extreme military maneuvers by the Iranian regime, raising alert levels in Israel and the West. These unusual steps are believed to be a response to growing domestic distress within Iran, according to a report by Yaron Avraham. In parallel, Israel is engaged in frequent consultations with the U.S. administration regarding the developments in Tehran. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has briefed President Donald Trump on Israel's assessment of the situation in Iran under the leadership of Mujtaba Khamenei. Jerusalem estimates that any significant strike plan against Iran must include widespread damage to infrastructure, energy facilities, missile systems, and the nuclear program. However, Israel understands that Trump has not yet decided whether or when to launch an attack. These developments occur at a particularly sensitive political juncture, with only 12 days remaining until Israeli elections and 19 days until the U.S. midterm elections. Despite the severity of the Iranian actions and the increasing vigilance, security officials in Israel and the United States do not believe at this stage that the events in Iran necessitate an immediate, unavoidable military response.
