IDF prepares: fear of Iranian attack before midterm elections - will Hezbollah join?

The IDF is preparing for the possibility that Iran will attack before the US midterm elections, and assesses that Hezbollah may join the fighting. Three mediation channels are trying to prevent escalation, while the US continues to build up forces in the region. Security officials say Trump has a one-month window to act against Iran after the elections.

The IDF is preparing for the possibility that Iran will attack before the US midterm elections, and assesses that Hezbollah may join the fighting despite its difficult situation, and attempt to attack targets in Israel and IDF forces in Lebanon. In such a case, the IDF would call up extensive reserves and deliver a powerful blow to Hezbollah. Meanwhile, three mediation channels are working to prevent escalation, and the US continues to build up forces in the region. Israel assesses that there is no avoiding another round of fighting against Iran, aimed at weakening the regime and harming its nuclear and military capabilities. The IDF believes the US military will be ready to strike within days. Security officials say President Trump has a one-month window after the midterm elections to act freely against the Iranian threat.
