Turkey's state news agency Anadolu reports that Israel is preparing for independent military action against Iran if the United States reaches a deal with Tehran or ends the current round of confrontation without dismantling Iran's strategic capabilities. According to the report, Israeli officials fear a scenario in which Washington ends the campaign without removing the Iranian threat, leaving Israel to act alone.
This report from Turkey's state news agency Anadolu adds to a growing series of reports about Israeli preparations for a potential unilateral strike on Iran. Earlier today, The Zioneer reported a similar report indicating that Israel is preparing to strike Iran without US approval. The current report specifies the strategic rationale: Israel's concern that a US deal with Iran could leave the Islamic Republic's strategic capabilities intact, necessitating independent Israeli action. The report does not cite named Israeli officials and remains unverified by independent sources. The international context remains tense, with previous reports over the past weeks indicating heightened US-Israeli coordination and Iranian threats of retaliation.
