(4 months ago)Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has instructed the military to speed up its air campaign against Iran for 48 hours to destroy the country's arms industry as much as possible before Washington moves towards a ceasefire, the New York Times reported on Wednesday. The directive came after the government of Netanyah received [...]
The directive came after Netanyah's government received a copy of a 15-point plan drafted by the US to end the war and reportedly concluded that it did not respond favorably to Iran's nuclear programme or ballistic missile capabilities. Israeli officials fear US President Donald Trump could announce peace talks at any moment, according to the Times, Anadolu writes.
Regarding the reported plan, White House spokeswoman Caroline Leavet called for caution, saying she had seen a “plan circulated on media”, but that the White House had never confirmed it.
“There are elements of the truth in it, but some of the stories I read were not fully factual”, she added.
Netanyah issued the order during a meeting at a military headquarters Tuesday, following briefings by top commanders on remaining implementable targets.
