Following a meeting yesterday with US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, Israeli military chief Aviv Kohavi says Israel and the US need to accelerate joint plans for offensive actions against Iran. 'It was agreed that we are at a critical point in time that requires the acceleration of operational plans and cooperation against Iran and its terrorist proxies in the region,' Kohavi says in remarks provided by the Israel Defense Forces. In light of growing uncertainty regarding a return by Iran to the 2015 nuclear deal with world powers amid long-stalled negotiations, the past two years have seen the IDF ramp up its efforts to prepare a credible military threat against Tehran's nuclear sites.
