Israel is reportedly preparing for the possibility of taking independent military action against Iran as the United States weighs its next move in the conflict. Reports suggest senior U.S. officials are discussing ways to end the war, while concerns over dwindling missile and interceptor stocks could limit Washington’s options. Vice President J.D. Vance has acknowledged that Iran wants an end to the conflict, but says Tehran must meet U.S. demands. Meanwhile, Israel is reportedly preparing for a scenario in which American support or direct involvement decreases. Could Israel continue the war alone? The next phase of the Iran conflict could depend on that decision.
