Israel coordinates with US on possible strikes on Iran - CNN

Israel is coordinating with the United States on potential new strikes against Iran as tensions in the Strait of Hormuz threaten a ceasefire, CNN reported on Tuesday, citing an Israeli source.

The coordination includes preparing for a possible short campaign targeting energy infrastructure and senior Iranian officials, the source told CNN.

“The intention would be to carry out a short campaign aimed at pressuring Iran into further concessions in negotiations,” the source said.

The report said many of the plans had already been prepared before the ceasefire in early April, but any decision to resume hostilities rests with President Donald Trump.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has also held consultations in recent days as tensions have risen, the report said.
