An Israeli security source reportedly said that Israel is interested in resuming military operations against Iran, but only if permitted to strike Iranian nuclear and infrastructure targets. The report comes amid a series of recent assessments and statements by Israeli officials regarding a potential return to conflict with Iran.
The statement, attributed to an Israeli security source, was published via the source monitored by The Zioneer. It represents a specific condition on Israel's willingness to return to full-scale conflict with Iran: the ability to strike the country's nuclear program and infrastructure. The Zioneer has previously reported on multiple assessments and statements by Israeli officials, including Defense Minister Israel Katz, who earlier this month said the IDF is ready to resume the campaign against Iran. Security assessments have described a return to fighting as a matter of time, though the condition cited in this report—if confirmed—marks a new element in the public discourse.
