Disagreements in Iran, Israel stands ready

An attack could take place before the hostage and ceasefire negotiations in Gaza scheduled for this Thursday, August 15. A timing that could compromise the talks. The situation remains “fluid” however, due to disagreements within the Iranian leadership. Israeli intelligence services believe that Iran has not yet decided on the timing and nature of its response. International pressure and internal debates could push Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to delay or even restrict retaliatory measures against Israel.

Israel has not commented the death of Ismail Haniyeh, but had vowed to destroy Hamas after the terrorist group's unprecedented attack on its soil on October 7, which triggered the war in the Gaza Strip. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his country was ready to confront “Iran and its henchmen on all fronts.” Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant briefed his U.S. counterpart Lloyd Austin on Iranian military preparations suggesting an imminent attack. Washington ordered the deployment of a missile submarine to the region.
