Security analyst Yair Goldblatt assesses that Israel may launch a unilateral strike on Iran in the near future, similar to the framework of Operation Rising Lion, arguing that Israel will have to act alone against threats. The assessment is a single-source opinion and not an official statement.
Security analyst Yair Goldblatt published a personal assessment Tuesday evening arguing that Israel may again conduct a unilateral strike on Iran, as it did in Operation Rising Lion (Am KeLavi). Goldblatt stated that Israel will have to address existential threats alone, even without international backing. The assessment is an opinion from a single-source analyst and does not reflect an official security establishment position or government decision. It follows a broader background of heightened Israeli-Iran tensions, including prior assessments and official warnings reported by The Zioneer in recent days, but does not claim new intelligence or imminent action.
