Israel has raised its military readiness in anticipation of a possible resumption of U.S. strikes on Iran following the congressional elections scheduled for Tuesday.
Israeli sources reported that the country’s security establishment is on the highest state of alert, with the military and security agencies raising their readiness levels to the maximum in preparation for various offensive and defensive scenarios, according to the Israeli news website Walla.
In this context, informed security officials revealed that Washington would notify Tel Aviv in advance if the U.S. administration decided to launch a military attack on Iranian targets.
They noted that security coordination and intelligence sharing between the Pentagon, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), and Israel’s Ministry of Defense have reached unprecedented levels in recent months.
Israeli sources had described the coming days as highly sensitive, confirming that senior Israeli military commanders are holding daily communications with their American counterparts.
These reports come amid Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s continued efforts to pressure U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration to launch powerful strikes against Iran on the day after the congressional midterm elections, scheduled for November 3.
This comes as negotiations between Iran and Qatari mediators continue in an effort to reach an agreement to end the war with the United States. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has described the talks as positive. In remarks on Sunday, Araghchi confirmed that progress was being made, but said the negotiations had not yet produced a final outcome.
