Israel is said to be preparing a mission to disable potential attacks Iran, including reducing the nuclear threat from that country.
Quote from The Times of IsraelThe head of the Israeli Armed Forces, Aviv Kohavi, told Walla the plan was well prepared.
“A number of proposed defense-related budgets have been approved and are aimed at the mission. This is a very difficult mission with more intelligence operations, more operational capabilities and weapons,” Kohavi said.
The main goal, according to Kohav, is to minimize Iran’s role in operating in the Middle East with an emphasis on Syria. This includes crippling attacks from Hamas and Hezbollah, which are referred to as militias with support from Iran.
Kohavi said Israeli strikes have so far been able to suppress Iran’s presence including weapons in the north.
“Very active in disrupting Hezbollah, Hamas and Iran smuggling routes throughout the region,” Kohavi said.
He claimed an Israeli military strike would be very effective in the Middle East. “There is no need to wait for the attack to come. But it has been prepared, to neutralize (the attack),” said Kohavi.
Israel’s Defense Minister, Benny Gantz, also said that Israel might take military action against Iran.
” Israel will not hesitate to do so . I will not rule out the possibility of Israel taking action to prevent Iran ‘s nuclear war , ” Gantz said .
