- President Trump informed UAE President bin Zayed of a potential Iran strike timeline.
- Bin Zayed reportedly passed the strike window details to Iranian leadership.
- U.S. officials are intensifying diplomatic efforts to reach an agreement with Iran.
- Secretary of State Rubio called Iranian demands unreasonable and negotiations distant from a breakthrough.

U.S. President Donald Trump recently informed UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed about a possible timeframe for an attack on Iran. According to an initial report by Barak Bats, citing American sources familiar with the conversation, the strike could have occurred within days, possibly within 48 hours. Following the discussion, bin Zayed reportedly relayed the information received from Trump, including the potential strike window, to Iranian leadership in Tehran.
Since the conversation, there have been increased efforts by U.S. administration officials to reach an agreement with Iran. This occurred at a peak in negotiations, shortly before Secretary of State Marco Rubio expressed strong reservations about Tehran's demands. Rubio stated that the Iranian demands were excessive and unreasonable, and that the parties were far from a breakthrough in negotiations.
Israel understands that Trump now wants his Vice President, J.D. Vance, to exhaust diplomatic efforts with Iran. Reports from the previous day indicated that Trump had given Vance and other senior officials a few more days to try and reach agreements.
Despite these diplomatic endeavors, Israel still estimates that an American strike will ultimately take place, according to the report.
