Israel and US Coordinate on New Strategic Strikes Against Iranian Targets
Tel Aviv, Israel – December 29,2025
Israel and US Coordinate on New Strategic Strikes Against Iranian Targets as tensions in the Middle East reach a boiling point.
Following a year of unprecedented direct military confrontation, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly set to present a comprehensive new attack plan to U.S. President Donald Trump during a high-stakes visit to the United States.
This move comes as Israeli intelligence warns that Tehran is rapidly reconstituting its ballistic missile program and accelerating nuclear enrichment activities that were previously hampered by strikes earlier this summer.
The geopolitical landscape has shifted dramatically following the “12-Day War” in June 2025, during which the Israeli Air Force and U.S. Navy conducted coordinated strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities at Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan.
However, recent reports indicate that the “green light” from Washington has evolved from defensive posturing to active planning for a second wave of operations.
Israeli officials have stressed that the window to prevent Iran from achieving nuclear breakout is narrowing, necessitating a “preemptive and decisive” strategy that has now received the necessary backing from the Trump administration.
Key Headlines:
Netanyahu–Trump Summit:

US Green Light
The White House reinforces its commitment to “collective self-defense,” signaling a departure from previous calls for restraint.
Intelligence Warnings:
Mossad and the IDF identify “unusual” IRGC Aerospace Force movements, suspecting that ongoing missile drills are a cover for a retaliatory strike.
Nuclear Escalation:
Reports suggest Iran has resumed high-level enrichment at clandestine sites, triggering an immediate review of military options by the Pentagon.
Regional Fallout:
Gulf nations remain on high alert as the threat of a broader regional conflagration looms over global energy markets.
A New Chapter of Strategic Cooperation
The coordination between Jerusalem and Washington has reached a level of transparency unseen in previous administrations.
According to diplomatic sources, the “green light” provided by President Trump is not merely a verbal endorsement but involves integrated logistical support, including the provision of specialized munitions and refueling capabilities essential for long-range missions into Iranian airspace.
Prime Minister Netanyahu has been vocal about the necessity of these moves, stating that Israel will “settle accounts” with any entity that seeks its destruction.
The Israeli leader is expected to brief the U.S. President on specific options for American involvement, potentially including the use of B-2 Spirit bombers to reach fortified underground sites that remain a threat to regional stability.
The Iranian Response and “Deception” Campaigns
In Tehran, the mood is one of defiant preparation. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) recently conducted massive missile exercises across several cities, a move that Western intelligence agencies suspect is part of a larger deception campaign.
Israeli Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir warned that these drills could serve as a “smoke screen” for a surprise attack against Israeli population centers.
The Iranian leadership has vowed that any new Israeli aggression, backed by the U.S., would meet a “crushing response” that would extend far beyond the borders of the Levant.
Iranian officials have pointed to their ability to strike U.S. assets in Qatar and the UAE as a deterrent, though recent Israeli strikes have significantly eroded Tehran’s conventional air defense capabilities.
Global Market Volatility and Security Concerns
As news of the potential strikes spreads, global oil markets have reacted with significant jitters.
Analysts warn that a sustained conflict could disrupt shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, leading to a spike in energy prices. For the international community, the primary concern remains whether this “green light” will lead to a surgical strike or spiral into a full-scale war involving multiple regional proxies.
Despite the risks, the Israeli government maintains that the cost of inaction is far higher.
The upcoming meeting between Netanyahu and Trump is seen as the final “syncing of watches” before a potential military operation.
With the transition to 2026 approaching, the Middle East stands at a critical juncture where the decisions made in Washington and Jerusalem will determine the security architecture of the region for the next decade.
