Iran reported to be willing to permit inspections in bid to forestall attack

, amid the fear that the recent dramatic events in the region, which led to the collapse of Iran ’s regional “axis of resistance”, will prompt Tehran to cross the nuclear threshold to protect the regime.

Foreign minister Gideon Sa’ar said “the most important question by far, for the future of this region, for the security of Israel, is to avoid Iran getting a nuclear weapon”. One approach, as described by two sources familiar with the plan, involves increasing military pressure by deploying additional US forces, fighter jets and ships to the Middle East. The US may also sell advanced weapons to Israel, including bunker-buster bombs that would enhance its capability to disable Iranian nuclear facilities.

After Trump decided to withdraw from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action nuclear deal with Iran in 2018, and especially since 2020, Tehran has reportedly accelerated the pace of its nuclear development and has been considered a nuclear threshold state for at least the last two years.According to international reports, Iran has already amassed enough enriched uranium to make several bombs.
