Intelligence officials have raised concerns that Iran could be planning a surprise attack using missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles against Gulf States and Israel. This warning comes as the US and Iran engage in ceasefire negotiations, during which US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are reportedly at odds regarding the best approach to Iran. Military leaders in Israel, including Defense Minister Israel Katz, conducted a situational assessment that highlighted the potential for a preemptive Iranian strike. Such an attack could occur before the US and Israel determine that diplomatic efforts are no longer effective. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are enhancing their readiness through discussions with American counterparts, focusing on intelligence sharing regarding unusual Iranian activities. Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir, the IDF Chief of Staff, has been coordinating responses with US military leaders to ensure preparedness for any Iranian aggression.
