Israel's defense establishment sees no urgent need to strike Iran until new gov't formed - report
The Military Intelligence Directorate (Aman) disagrees with the assessment, N12 reported, and supports taking action against Iran.
Israel's defense establishment, as reported by N12 News, does not believe there is an urgent reason to attack Iran before a new government is formed. The defense establishment acknowledges Iran's growing military capabilities but asserts they have not reached the "red lines" Israel has set. Military Intelligence Directorate (Aman) supports military action, while the reluctance for immediate action is attributed to Israel's complex relationship with the United States, as per sources close to the discussions.
This report emerges in light of Mossad Director Roman Gofman's recent trip to Washington and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's efforts to reignite conflict in the Middle East. Gofman met CIA Director John Ratcliffe in Washington and US Special Envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff in Miami. However, Ynet reported that Yeshar party chairman MK Gadi Eisenkot, currently tasked with forming a coalition, was not included in the political-security briefing with Netanyahu on Thursday.
