CNN: Israel is preparing for a possible strike on Iranian nuclear facilities.

CNN reported Tuesday that the United States has obtained new intelligence indicating that Israel is preparing to attack Iranian nuclear facilities.

The report quoted officials as saying that it is unclear whether Israeli leaders have made a final decision, and that the chances of an attack depend on the outcome of negotiations between the Trump administration and Iran.

A source told CNN that "the chance of an Israeli strike on an Iranian nuclear facility has increased significantly in recent months," and that "the possibility of a US-Iran agreement negotiated by Trump that does not remove all of Iran's uranium increases the likelihood of a strike."

Iranian officials have made it clear that eliminating Iran's uranium enrichment program is out of the question, despite continued calls from US officials.

CNN's report acknowledged that Israel does not have the capability to destroy Iran's nuclear program without US support. A senior US official stated that the United States is intensifying its intelligence gathering efforts in preparation for an Israeli attack on Iran, but another source indicated that Trump is likely to support such a move at this time.

According to the network, an Israeli source said that Israel might launch an attack on its own if the United States and Iran negotiate what it considers a "bad deal."

Another source said that Israel is likely to launch an attack during the negotiations to undermine the chances of an agreement. The source added, "I think they are likely to attack to try to derail the agreement if they believe Trump will accept a 'bad deal.' The Israelis have not hesitated to inform us of this... both publicly and privately."

US President Donald Trump previously refused to support an Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, preferring diplomacy. However, he conducted the negotiations under the threat of US bombing Iran if no agreement was reached.

The US president is threatening to attack Iran over its nuclear program, even though US intelligence agencies recently confirmed there is no evidence that Iran is developing a nuclear weapon.
