According to Israeli television reports, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Mossad chief Dedi Barnea planned an unspecified operation against Iran on the eve of the Israeli election, which was ultimately thwarted after the United States accidentally disclosed intelligence about the operation.
The operation was not backed by other senior officials in Israel’s security establishment, who expressed concerns that it could spark a major escalation with Iran and potentially lead to a postponement of the scheduled voting.
The timing of the planned operation—immediately before elections—and its cancellation following the US intelligence leak raises questions about coordination between Israeli and American security services and the decision-making process around military actions during sensitive political periods.
