In a dangerous development reflecting the escalating tension between Iran and Israel, the American network "CNN" reported that recent intelligence indicates Israel is preparing to attack Iranian nuclear facilities.
According to US sources, it is not yet clear whether the Israeli leadership has made a final decision on this matter, but there is information confirming Israel's readiness to carry out the attack unilaterally if diplomatic efforts fail.
These Israeli moves reflect escalation in the region, especially with the US President Donald Trump's administration seeking a diplomatic agreement with Tehran regarding its nuclear program, which some consider a "bad deal."
In this context, an Israeli source informed the American network that Israel will not accept any agreement that does not involve Iran scaling back its nuclear activities, and that it is preparing for a military strike if the talks continue to falter.
This escalation comes at a sensitive time, as regional tension remains high since the war in Gaza in 2023, and US officials warn that Israel carrying out a military strike could open the door to a wider conflict in the Middle East, posing a greater threat to regional stability.
In Iran, despite economic and political pressures, the Iranian leadership has affirmed that it does not have a clear alternative plan if the nuclear talks fail.
While Iran seeks to strengthen its relations with allies like Russia and China, internal challenges, including economic crises and severe resource shortages, complicate the Iranian position further.
On the other hand, Iranian leader Ali Khamenei stated that US demands to halt uranium enrichment are "humiliating" and unacceptable, casting doubt on the possibility of reaching a final agreement.
Despite continuous attempts over the years to find a diplomatic solution, many unresolved issues such as uranium enrichment and ballistic missiles make it increasingly difficult to reach a satisfactory agreement for all parties.
The current situation remains open to various possibilities, with high stakes on the developments of the coming days that could lead to military escalation or perhaps a diplomatic settlement ensuring regional stability.
