American troops stationed across the Middle East, under the jurisdiction of U.S. Central Command, are on high alert due to anticipated retaliation from Iran against Israel. U.S. officials are concerned that this could escalate into a regional conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Al Mayadeen citing CNN and American officials, intelligence from Washington suggests that Iran is plotting an assault involving a combination of drones and cruise missiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CBS News reports that U.S. officials have confirmed Iran’s intention to retaliate against Israel.
 
Intelligence gathered suggests that Iran’s retaliation will involve the use of Shaheed loitering drones and cruise missiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The specific timing and target of the planned attack remain undisclosed.

However, officials indicate that targeting an Israeli diplomatic facility is considered a proportional response to a recent attack in Damascus.

The anticipated timeframe for the attack is before the end of Ramadan, expected next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A significant development emerges as reports indicate that the United States has conveyed to Iran its stance of non-interference in the event of an Iranian attack on Israel.

This understanding between the U.S. and Iran was reached through intermediaries, highlighting a diplomatic channel for communication between the two nations.

In exchange for this assurance from Iran, the United States has emphasized that it will not intervene if Iran proceeds with retaliatory actions against Israel.

Notably, Iran has provided assurances that it will not target U.S. facilities as part of its potential retaliation against Israel.

The context behind this arrangement underscores Israel’s recent attack on the Iranian Embassy in Damascus, which occurred without prior consultation with the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Iranian government’s aircraft, identified as F900EX EP-IGC with registration number 7324E3, known as IRAN06, departed Tehran and is currently descending towards Isfahan. This specific callsign is typically associated with the presence of Major General Mohammad Bagheri, the Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, on board. It appears that Iranian defense officials are relocating from Tehran to Isfahan, a city housing numerous Iranian military bases, including the recently revealed underground air base named “Eagle 44,” designed to withstand attacks from bombs and ballistic missiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Iranian army leaders have relocated from Tehran to the underground shelter in Isfahan, commonly referred to as the doomsday bunker (Base 8). The military has escalated to maximum readiness as of this morning. The looming question is whether Iran will launch a direct assault on Israel or target one of the evacuated Israeli embassies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Syrian sources anticipate that Iran’s retaliation attack against Israel will likely originate from Syrian territory, potentially targeting the Golan Heights in northern Israel, where multiple Israel Defense Force facilities are located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update:<\/strong> Israeli defense sources indicate that in the event of Iran initiating a direct retaliatory strike on Israeli territory, including diplomatic sites, Israel will respond with a substantial wave of strikes targeting sites in Iran. Another source connected to the IDF has informed Saudi media that the Israeli Air Force has been engaged in rigorous training over the past 72-96 hours, involving various combat aircraft and drones, to prepare for a retaliatory attack on a list of potential targets in Iran, potentially including nuclear sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
