The United States and Israel are engaged in intense preparations — the largest since the cease-fire took effect — for the possible resumption of attacks against Iran as early as next week, The New York Times reported Saturday, citing two Middle East officials who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Meanwhile, Israel’s Mako News reported that official Israeli sources as saying that US President Donald Trump is expected to convene his closest team of advisers in the next 24 hours to make a final decision on Iran. Israel estimates that a decision on military action could be made very soon, the report added.

According to the NYT, should Trump decide to resume military strikes, options include more aggressive raids targeting Iranian military and infrastructure targets, US officials said.
