President Donald Trump is close to deciding on a military strike against Iran, according to Israeli sources who described the current period as 'dramatic hours.' The report, published at 20:03 Jerusalem, follows by just 11 minutes an earlier assessment from an Israeli source who told N13/Army Radio that Trump is 'closer than ever' to a major strike on Iran, as The Zioneer reported at 19:52 Jerusalem. Both assessments reflect a rapid escalation in the sense of imminent action, building on weeks of statements from the president. In a July 23 interview with N12, Trump said he was 'close to making a decision' on a massive attack, and subsequent reports indicated the US military was preparing attack options. The current situation marks a potential turning point in the US-Iran conflict, which has seen direct American kinetic operations following the collapse of diplomatic frameworks earlier this month.
