An assessment published Thursday afternoon notes that the opening of public shelters follows a pattern similar to the one observed before the launches of Operation Rising Lion and Operation Roaring Lion, suggesting possible preparations for a new military campaign.
An assessment circulated on Thursday, July 23, points to the activation of public shelters as resembling the pattern seen in the days preceding two major Israeli military operations — Operation Rising Lion (2025) and Operation Roaring Lion (February 2026). The assessment, which draws on the observed sequence of civil-defense measures, does not specify which shelters have been opened or whether the pattern is based on a specific event. The Zioneer has previously reported on indicators of a possible renewed campaign against Iran, though the assessment does not explicitly link the shelter openings to Iran.
