US Envoy Suggests Iran Strike Possible This Weekend

Speaking during a visit to the Gulf, Barrack emphasized that while the US is open to a diplomatic agreement, President Trump's threats of action are serious if diplomacy fails. The ambassador clarified that the US seeks a policy change and a regional rebalancing to eliminate threats rather than regime change, despite recent vows by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to topple the Iranian regime. Negotiations involve uranium enrichment, sanctions, and Iran's regional activities.

Iran is reportedly preparing for an imminent attack from Israel or the US, which it anticipates could occur before Tuesday's elections. Meanwhile, Israeli security officials expressed concern over potential miscalculations and escalation, stating they would prefer US economic pressure and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz over immediate military action.
