KABUL: As high-level diplomatic negotiations between Iran and the U.S. over Tehran’s nuclear program continue, Western media outlets report that Israel is preparing for an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
According to CNN report on Tuesday night, several U.S. officials, citing newly obtained intelligence, confirmed to the network that the Israeli military is planning an attack on Iran’s nuclear installations.
While they did not specify the exact timing of the potential strike, they suggested it could occur in the coming months. U.S. officials noted that the likelihood of an attack increases if an agreement is reached between Iran and the U.S. regarding its nuclear program.
The situation highlights the growing rift between the U.S. and Israel on Middle Eastern issues, as Washington is engaged in negotiations while its strategic partner considers military action.
