Assessment

Read the full assessment

The Israeli defense establishment is reportedly divided on the urgency of striking Iran, with Military Intelligence (Aman) advocating for immediate action while other elements prefer waiting for a new government. Concurrently, Israel is preparing for a unilateral strike against Iran's nuclear program, citing concerns over enriched uranium oversight and perceived US focus on China. This indicates a potential shift towards independent Israeli military action, despite internal policy disagreements.
