US loses control over Israel and does not guarantee to prevent attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities

Unnamed US State Department sources indicate that Israel has not assured the American government that it will prevent attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

This information was initially reported by CNN and corroborated by the agency Sputnikhighlighting the intensification of tensions in the Middle East following a ballistic missile attack by Iran on October 1.

The Financial Times media also contributed information from sources close to the matter, stating that, currently, Israel does not contemplate a direct attack on Iranian nuclear facilities.

At the same time, US President Joe Biden apparently does not endorse such a measure. A statement emphasized Israel’s lack of assurances that it rules out military action in response to recent Iranian attacks.

American officials have expressed uncertainty about the timing of the possible Israeli response. One of them highlighted that, although unlikely on October 7th — the anniversary of a Hamas attack against Israel — any Israeli military action could “probably occur before or after” that date.

The current scenario raises concerns about the geopolitical dynamics in the region, with analysts and international leaders attentive to the possible repercussions of a worsening of the conflict between Israel and Iran. The instability generated by these uncertainties could have significant consequences for the stability of the Middle East.
