Israel Said to Be Preparing Additional Strikes on Iran in Coordination With US

Israel is consulting with the US while keeping open the possibility of additional military action against Iran as tensions in the Middle East rise again, crypto-focused media outlet Odaily reported on May 5.

An Israeli source told Odaily that a ceasefire with Iran could come under strain as tensions escalate around the Strait of Hormuz.

Israel is preparing a new military operation against Iran in coordination with the US. Potential targets include energy infrastructure and precision strikes on senior officials.

The plan was already largely prepared before the ceasefire in early April and could be carried out immediately depending on how the situation develops.

Markets are watching the risk that a broader military clash in the Middle East could revive concerns over oil supply disruptions and increase volatility across global financial markets.
