A senior Israeli security official has stated that Iran currently lacks the chemical weapons capability to threaten Israel, according to a report by Yossi Yehoshua, military analyst for i24NEWS and Yedioth Ahronoth. This statement follows a New York Times report alleging that Israel had warned the United States about Iran's potential use of chemical weapons.
The senior official, whose remarks were cleared by military censorship, indicated that the threat is being monitored and that citizens would be informed if necessary. The official added, "We are monitoring the threat, and if the need arises, we will know how to act and inform the citizens."
The New York Times report suggested that the U.S. received Israel's intelligence with skepticism, with some American officials viewing it as part of a pressure campaign by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government to persuade the Trump administration to resume large-scale military operations against Iran.
Israel reportedly shared some of this information with Gulf state officials, who also expressed doubts about Iran's plans to use chemical weapons. These officials, according to the Times, believe Israel is attempting to push the U.S. and its partners toward a more intense phase of conflict.
