The head of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency, Roman Gofman, returned to Israel on Monday following a working visit to the United States. During his trip, Gofman met with senior U.S. administration officials and the Director of the CIA, John Ratcliffe. He presented them with Israel's latest intelligence on the situation concerning Iran. Gofman is expected to brief the Israeli government and hold a separate meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Prime Minister Netanyahu has recently been discussing potential operations against Iran with security chiefs, which could provoke a strong response from Tehran. However, according to media reports, the Chief of Staff of the IDF, Eyal Zamir, has strongly opposed such actions, citing the tense situation ahead of elections. Gofman's visit, which included discussions over the weekend in Washington with senior U.S. officials, reportedly focused on the possibility of resuming military action against Iran. Three sources familiar with the matter indicated that Netanyahu dispatched Gofman, as the Prime Minister has been pressuring U.S. President Donald Trump to restart military operations against the Iranian regime. The article also notes that Gofman's meetings coincided with Netanyahu's efforts to persuade Trump to resume a military campaign against Iran, with American sources suggesting the Israeli premier is currently advocating for a forceful approach.
