Israel was on alert over the weekend regarding the possibility of a US military strike against Iran. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened a security meeting on Friday with top defense officials to discuss the situation and prepare for potential scenarios, according to i24.

Concurrently, the White House is exploring diplomatic avenues to resolve the situation. Two sources indicated that U.S. President Donald Trump has granted his Vice President, J.D. Vance, and other administration officials additional days to pursue negotiations. The coming weeks also hold significant diplomatic events that could influence the timing of any action.

U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are scheduled to visit the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday and Wednesday for meetings with senior officials from Russia and Ukraine, aiming to advance peace efforts. Subsequently, Trump is expected to visit China on November 18-19 for the Asia-Pacific summit, with attempts underway to arrange a trilateral meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The impact of these diplomatic events on the U.S. decision regarding Iran remains unclear, but they may factor into Trump's timeline considerations.
