"Channel 12" citing sources: Israel prepares for possibility of US launching an attack on Iran soon

"Channel 12" Hebrew reported, citing sources Saturday evening, that Israel is preparing for the possibility that the United States will launch an attack on Iran soon.

"Channel 12" added, according to the sources, that it is not yet clear to Israel whether the potential American attack would be broad or limited.

The Hebrew channel stated that Israel is preparing for the possibility that Iran might launch a preemptive attack if it feels an attack on it is imminent.

According to the same source, the Chief of Staff of the Israeli Army intensified his contacts with the commander of the US Central Command to coordinate any potential operations.

Meanwhile, "CBS" network reported, citing sources, that Nick Stewart, an employee of the US State Department during the first term of President Donald Trump, has joined the negotiation team with Iran.

"CBS" added that "Stewart joined the Iranian negotiation team, which included Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, and US Special Envoy Steve Whitkoff, prior to the failure of the Islamabad talks led by Vice President JD Vance in early April."

It clarified that "Stewart was appointed by Jared Kushner and previously worked at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), where he has specialized experience in nuclear affairs."

Congress recently asked US officials, including Energy Secretary Chris Wright, to clarify why there were no US nuclear experts from the National Nuclear Security Administration or the Department of Energy on the negotiation team with Iran.

It is worth noting that four weeks after the United States and Israel suspended their campaign against Iran, no agreement has been reached to end the war, which has caused the largest disruption ever in global energy supplies.

For more than two months, Iran has prevented almost all ships from passing through the Gulf except its own, while the United States has imposed a blockade to hinder ships sailing from Iranian ports.
