Military Action Still Possible Despite Iran Diplomacy: Report

Israel is keeping military action against Iran on the table as senior officials prepare for crucial talks in Washington. The discussions come amid growing unease over the progress of US-Iran nuclear negotiations, which remain uncertain.

High-level consultations are planned, with Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar expected to travel to Washington in about a week and a half. He has received an official invitation for talks with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, though his office has not yet confirmed his attendance. Discussions are also underway regarding a potential visit by Defense Minister Israel Katz. Senior Israeli defense officials are also slated to travel to the US as part of ongoing diplomatic and security consultations.

These planned visits are reportedly driven by concerns over the status of the US-Iran negotiations and reported difficulties within those talks. The report from Israeli broadcaster i24NEWS, citing a source familiar with the matter, emphasizes that military action remains a possible option for Israel. However, the ministerial visits could be postponed or canceled if a meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump is scheduled soon.

Israeli officials continue to view military action as a possible option while diplomatic efforts over Iran's nuclear program remain uncertain.
