The Israeli network reported that the US Air Force has started the process of returning its refueling aircraft to the Middle East and Israel. These aircraft had been partially relocated to Europe in recent weeks. According to the report, Israeli Chief of Staff Aviv Aharon has held security assessment meetings with senior military commanders and has been in direct contact with US Central Command (CENTCOM) and Pentagon officials. Israeli officials say any Iranian attack on Israel would be met with a broad response. They also claim that President Trump believes Iran is using negotiations to buy time. The report adds that Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump are in direct contact about recent developments, and some Israeli sources suggest that the US might launch several days of consecutive attacks on Iranian targets if tensions flare.
