Israel notified the US in early May that it was preparing to attack Iran's nuclear facilities, a report by The New York Times stated earlier, adding that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu might order a strike even if the US makes a deal with Iran.
Israel is fully prepared to launch an operation against Iran and has already briefed US officials, CBS News reports.
Anticipating potential Iranian retaliation, particularly against American targets in Iraq, the US has advised some citizens to leave the region.
The State Department has ordered non-essential government personnel to evacuate Iraq, citing “heightened regional tensions.”
Meanwhile, the Pentagon is allowing military families to voluntarily depart bases across the Middle East, according to a defense official.
US president Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, still plans to move ahead with a sixth round of nuclear talks with Iran in the coming days, the report added.
When asked about the evacuation notice, Trump told reporters: “It could be a dangerous place. We’ll see what happens.”
