TBN IsraelTBN Israel’s Yair Pinto and Mati Shoshani report on the Israel-Iran and regional war.
IRAN: Is Iran trying at any cost to recover uranium buried by the strikes in Isfahan? As Tehran denies that a deal has been reached on opening the Strait of Hormuz, the Revolutionary Guards are officially preparing for combat — and the United States Air Force is at its highest level of readiness ahead of the possibility of a major strike.
U.S. CYBERATTACK: An Iranian cyberattack recently hit U.S. water infrastructure, raising new concerns about Iran’s widening campaign against America beyond the battlefield. While Tehran mocks President Trump, the United States is weighing whether to keep pushing negotiations — or move toward a broader military campaign.
HORMUZ CRISIS: Trump says there is a deal with Iran on the Strait of Hormuz and that a nuclear disarmament agreement will follow. Tehran denies it, and Gulf states are worried. Talks through Oman are advancing, but the United Arab Emirates is pressuring Trump to escalate, take control of Hormuz, and even consider ground operations. Saudi Arabia and Qatar are pushing him to avoid a major attack and give diplomacy another chance.
STRIKE HALTED: American officials say Trump was closer than ever to launching a massive attack on Iran, but backed down one day before the operation after pressure from Saudi Arabia and Qatar. CENTCOM prepared a new operational plan targeting Iranian energy and infrastructure sites, and Israel was reportedly expected to be part of the plan.
ISRAEL / IRAN: Israel told the United States that if an attack does not severely damage Iran’s economic and regime targets, there is no point in carrying it out. Meanwhile, the Revolutionary Guards are preparing for the possibility of a renewed American strike, and pro-Iranian militias across the Middle East are preparing for coordinated action.
LEBANON / HEZBOLLAH: Five Lebanese Army soldiers were injured by a Hezbollah explosive device in southern Lebanon. The incident took place near Kafra, outside the security zone, in an area where IDF forces were not present. The IDF says the explosive device belonged to Hezbollah.
REGIONAL WAR: Arab countries are warning Iraq to restrain pro-Iranian militias or face strikes on Iraqi territory. Lebanon is being warned not to rejoin the Iran-U.S. conflict. And the Middle East is now standing between a problematic agreement, a war of attrition, or a broad military campaign against the Revolutionary Guards.
