US-Iran clash could come within days, ex-Israeli intel chief says


Former Israeli military intelligence chief Amos Yadlin said a military confrontation between the United States and Iran could begin in the coming days, even as diplomatic efforts continue.
“We are much closer than we were before,” Yadlin told Israel’s Channel 12, adding that a superpower does not go to war in a matter of days and that a diplomatic path must first be exhausted.
Yadlin, who now heads a national security consultancy, said the statement that “all options are on the table” was backed by a credible military threat, pointing to US preparations off Iran’s coast and in the skies.
