Israel Wants Trump Go-Ahead for Iran Strike Option

Reports citing Israeli sources say officials want President Donald Trump's approval before opening a renewed strike option against Iran while the current exchange remains limited to the United States and the Iranian regime. The reports said Israel is not now directly involved, but officials believe the U.S.-Iran fire could continue for days as Washington targets assets used to threaten commercial shipping near the Strait of Hormuz. One Jerusalem source said Israel is willing to help if needed, even while recognizing that renewed Iranian barrages could send civilians back to shelters. The posture keeps deterrence credible against Tehran's nuclear and missile threat while leaving the immediate decision with Washington.
