📰 Israel Races to Hit Iran Hard Before the War Stops The IDF is trying to squeeze every last target out of the clock before any cease-fire talks can freeze the battlefield. According to Israeli officials, Prime Minister Netanyahu has ordered a 48-hour surge to destroy as much of Iran’s arms industry as possible, because Jerusalem fears that Trump could announce a temporary cease-fire before Israel finishes the job on Iran’s missile and nuclear programs. The logic is brutal and simple: if the war pauses too soon, Israel loses leverage, and the campaign against Iran’s military infrastructure ends with unfinished business. That urgency also explains the tempo on the ground. The IDF says it has already struck more than 3,000 Iranian regime targets and is still hitting missile launchers, production sites and air-defense systems as fast as it can reach them. The point is not symbolism. It is to degrade enough of Iran’s strike capacity that any pause in the fighting looks like a win, not a timeout. But the strategic downside is obvious. Every extra day of war invites more Iranian retaliation, more damage to Israeli infrastructure and more strain on an economy already under attack from missiles, drones and disruption. So Israel is doing what wartime governments always do when they fear a diplomatic freeze: racing to maximize damage now, even if that means paying for it later. #israel#iran#idf#war#netanyahu#security#military#geopolitics 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸
