Iran has declared a maximum state of readiness amid concerns that the United States is preparing for a large-scale conflict. Iranian authorities have placed their forces on high alert due to fears that U.S. President Donald Trump might authorize a military operation following the conclusion of the U.S. elections. According to Reuters, Iranian officials believe Trump could attempt to divert attention from a potential Republican defeat in the midterm elections by launching a military strike. Two senior Iranian sources indicated that the country's leadership has put its forces on alert due to the threat of a possible attack. Iran has historically viewed the U.S. as its primary adversary, referring to it as the "Great Satan." On Wednesday, during a government-organized rally commemorating the 1979 seizure of the U.S. embassy in Tehran, participants expressed satisfaction with the U.S. election results, linking them to Iran's resilience against several months of American strikes. Meanwhile, Israel is preparing for a potential escalation of military tensions with Iran, despite ongoing U.S.-Iran contacts. Israeli security agencies assess that Iran's nuclear program will continue, rendering diplomatic negotiations potentially fruitless. Israeli assessments suggest a direct military confrontation with Iran is a matter of time, with the exact timing of any escalation likely to become clearer after the final U.S. election results are announced. Israel also believes Tehran will obstruct any diplomatic progress sought by Washington.
