According to an analysis, Israel's political-security cabinet did not discuss the Iran issue during its meeting last night, despite the recent escalation between the United States and Iran. The omission suggests Israel was caught off guard by the developments.
An analysis circulated Wednesday evening noted that the political-security cabinet, which convened last night, did not include the Iran issue on its agenda. This comes amid a reported flare-up in US-Iran tensions. The absence of discussion suggests that Israeli decision-makers were surprised by the pace of events, according to the analysis. Previous reports from The Zioneer indicated that Israeli assessments did not expect a broader escalation with Iran, and that earlier cabinet sessions had focused on the Iran theater. The current analysis underscores the gap between prior assessments and the rapid diplomatic-military developments.
