Israeli and American officials have prepared operational plans for potential military action against Iran, according to analysis of current strategic discussions. The planning focuses on addressing Iran’s hidden weapons facilities and strategic military assets.

A key point of contention in these discussions is Pickaxe Mountain, a facility Israeli officials have repeatedly pressed the Trump administration to address. Whenever the US has made threats regarding the facility, Iran has responded by emphasizing it as a top strategic asset, according to sources familiar with the intelligence.

The analysis indicates that Iran’s concealed weapons programme presents significant challenges to any potential military operation, with coordination between Israeli and American planners ongoing. No imminent action has been announced, but the existence of prepared contingency plans reflects heightened concerns about Iran’s nuclear and conventional military capabilities.
