The United States and Israel are preparing for a significant bombing campaign targeting Iran’s energy infrastructure, with potential strikes planned over the weekend. The operation aims to impact Iran’s military capabilities and governance by targeting power plants and refineries. Although the final decision from President Trump is pending, the plan was discussed during a cabinet meeting at Camp David. Some White House aides opposed the military action, but Trump emphasized a strong stance against Iran, stating the U.S. would prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. The Pentagon is ready to act upon the President’s orders, while Israel coordinates with the U.S. on the operation. Discussions have also considered cutting electricity in Tehran, though no decision has been made. This joint operation would mark Israel’s return to combat after a U.S.-brokered truce ended. The situation remains tense, with potential economic impacts if the strikes proceed.
