Senior sources reported to Abu Ali Express that US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed the possibility of collapsing Iran's economy. The report did not provide further details on the framework or timing of the discussion.
The report, attributed to senior sources and carried by Israeli news outlet Abu Ali Express, adds a new dimension to the ongoing US-Iran crisis. While the US has conducted sustained airstrikes against IRGC infrastructure and maintained a naval blockade in recent weeks, as The Zioneer has reported, the discussion of an economic collapse strategy suggests a potential broadening of the pressure campaign. The sources did not specify whether the conversation occurred by phone or in person, or indicate a timeline for any related action. The report comes amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran, with the IRGC repeatedly threatening retaliation.
