According to Israeli journalist Niv Dvori, the United States is applying heavy pressure on Iran not to retaliate against Israel. The report, attributed to an unnamed source, suggests a major diplomatic push is underway to prevent a broader escalation. No official confirmation from Washington or Tehran is available.
A report from Israeli journalist Niv Dvori, published via a subscribed the source, states that the United States is exerting heavy pressure on Iran to refrain from launching a retaliatory strike against Israel. The wording — "the US is applying heavy pressure on Iran not to respond" — echoes similar reporting from Israeli officials earlier today (18:24 Jerusalem), when sources told The Zioneer that Washington was actively working through intermediaries to prevent an Iranian attack and had conveyed a threat of a rapid, powerful American response. Dvori's new report, citing a single unnamed source, adds specificity about the intensity of that pressure. It also arrives amid a broader diplomatic context: over the past week, indirect US-Iran talks have continued without a final deal (as The Zioneer reported at 17:11), while US Ambassador to the UN Danon noted on June 11 that Washington may need to apply more force against Tehran. The report is sourced to an anonymous official figure and has no independent confirmation. No on-record statements from the White House, State Department, or Iranian leadership have been released.
