The possibility of generalized ignition in the Middle East returns to the forefront, as US and Israeli officials warn that a possible Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities can take place even within the next few days, perhaps already on Sunday.
The newspaper, citing a senior Israeli official, said that a blow could already take place on Sunday, unless Iran agrees to stop production of tear material, which may be used to build an atomic bomb. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has raised the possibility of attacks on a telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump on Monday, WSJ said, citing two US officials.
The warning comes at a time when the United States is removing diplomatic and military personnel from the region’s neuralgic points, fearing Iran. Pressure towards Tehran culminates, with the US threatening military action if the Islamic Republic does not immediately stop urani enrichment.
At the same time, Israel is said to have completed operational plans for targeted blows, with the aim of opposing Iran’s nuclear program. According to Bloomberg, an Israeli government official said that if there was no interruption of fissue material, “military action is a matter of days”.
The historical rupture and the controversial program
Tehran, who categorically denies that it seeks to build nuclear weapons, insists on the need for “peaceful use” of nuclear energy. However, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) voted on Thursday in favor of Iran’s reprimand, stressing that Tehran has not provided transparency for its nuclear activities.
In response, Iran has announced the launch of a new Urani Urani Underground Center, a move perceived as a challenge by Israel. Iran’s nuclear program has been evolving for decades in scattered facilities – many of which are deeply underground and enhanced, making any business extremely complex.
US Role and Trump Dilemma
President Donald Trump reiterated the United States’ commitment to the peaceful settlement of Iran’s nuclear issue Through Diplomacy on Thursday, however, however, that Tehran should first abandon any ambition for possession of a nuclear weapons.
“We remain committed to a diplomatic resolution of Iran’s nuclear issue!” He wrote on the Truth Social platform.
The US president added that he has ordered his entire government to work in this direction, but leaving the Islamic Republic: “Iran could evolve into a great country but first must abandon the hopes of winning from nuclear weapons“
US President Donald Trump had warned Israel not to hit unilaterally, as his own talks with Tehran were at a critical point. However, he had at the same time threatened with military intervention if Iran did not abandon its ambitions for uranium enrichment.
So far, five rounds of talks between the US and Iran have not borne fruit. On Sunday, according to diplomatic sources, Trump’s envoy Steve Witkov is expected to have a new circle of Iranian officials in Oman.
How likely is the attack?
Despite increased readiness, the likelihood of attack remains “existing but not immediate”, according to Eurasia Group’s estimate, which places the risk of escalating at 30%. Intelligence services, such as the former head of Mossad Old Ailam, say that “Netanyahu sees the time as the last opportunity to prevent a nuclear Iran.”
Inside Israel, political pressure is intensifying. The Netanyahu government, the most right in the country’s history, has the support of Israel’s military leaders. At the same time, he is facing internal reactions and the threat of early elections, which he avoids for the time being, proposing “national security”.
The risk of uncontrolled conflict
According to Prime Minister Netanyahu’s international relations adviser, Caroline Glick, “a limited business can become a general conflict.” Recent Israeli operations have already caused significant losses in Hezbollah forces, and attacks have also been recorded on Iranian territory.
However, analysts point out that without clear support from the US – especially in technologically advanced weapons and aerial coverage – Israel’s ability to effectively hurt Iran’s nuclear facilities is limited.
The area is thus on a tight rope, with the risk of unforeseen escalation shaking any diplomatic opening. Next week is expected critical.
