Following midterm election setbacks, U.S. President Donald Trump indicated a potential military escalation against Iran, stating, "Will I have to destroy what's left of Iran? You will find out very soon." He added, "It would take them 25 years to rebuild the country. I would prefer not to destroy the rest of the country, if possible, but I may have to." Simultaneously, diplomatic efforts are ongoing, with a senior Iranian official telling Reuters that Tehran has submitted a new proposal for a nuclear deal to Washington via Qatar. This proposal is currently under review by the U.S. administration. According to the official, Iran will not negotiate until the U.S. addresses seven demands, including sanctions relief, the release of frozen assets, and financial compensation for war damages.
In response to the heightened tensions and the possibility of an attack on Iran, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have raised their alert level to 85%. A senior IDF officer commented to Channel 13 News, "It is very difficult to delve into Trump's psyche; it is unclear whether the election results will push him to achieve a success with a third strike, or if the loss will put an end to it." Earlier, during a situation assessment on the northern border, the Chief of Staff stated regarding Iran and Hezbollah's armament, "The IDF is alert to developments in near and distant arenas." He further added, "We will not allow Hezbollah to establish terror infrastructure in the area. Any attempt by the enemy to establish itself, arm itself, or threaten northern communities will be met immediately and powerfully. The IDF is alert to developments in near and distant arenas and is prepared to strike the enemy that tries to harm us, as we have done in the past."
