Israeli defence officials have warned that the country is preparing a far more aggressive response against Iran than seen in previous confrontations, as military planners anticipate a prolonged period of hostilities.
Senior sources say preparations underway in Jerusalem indicate that any forthcoming engagement could extend well beyond the 12-day exchanges witnessed in earlier rounds. The escalation follows heightened tensions across the region and growing concerns over Iran’s strategic posture.
Officials suggest Israel’s response framework has shifted significantly in recent weeks, with the security establishment bracing for a sustained campaign should hostilities ignite.
The developments mark a sharp rise in regional alert levels, with observers noting that the evolving situation may draw wider international attention in the coming hours.
