Israel Raises National Alert Level and Intensifies Military Preparations
On the 18th local time, two Israeli sources stated that due to signs indicating a possible joint attack on Iran in the coming days, Israel has raised the national alert level and is intensifying related military preparations.
A military source revealed that despite the announcement of progress in the second round of U.S.-Iran negotiations, Israel has remained skeptical about the talks for weeks and is continuing to accelerate its operational plans and defensive deployments.
The sources indicated that once President Trump authorizes it, the scale of this potential military action will exceed that of the "War of the 12th" that occurred in June 2025, during which the U.S. and Israel will conduct coordinated strikes. Additionally, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has convened several special security meetings this week to assess the IDF's readiness and U.S.-Israel coordination capabilities.
