Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has summoned key figures from the security establishment for a meeting concerning a potential operation against Iran, according to Israeli media reports.

The meeting is attended by IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, Mossad Director David Barnea, and Shin Bet head David Zini. Media reports indicate that Tel Aviv believes the likelihood of a military resolution regarding Iran remains, although Washington's intentions are still unclear.

Israel assesses that Trump is awaiting an opportunity for a military operation in which the IDF could participate. This interpretation is reportedly supported by the concentration of U.S. military forces in the region. Another significant indicator of activity is the contacts between Israeli Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir and the commander of CENTCOM, Admiral Bradley Cooper.

Additionally, Israel's top security officials are expected to discuss the situation in the Gaza Strip within the context of the Board of Peace that Donald Trump intends to establish to administer the enclave.
