Washington to Support Israel with Refueling Aircraft Amid Iran Escalation Concerns
Reports have indicated from American and Israeli officials that the Trump administration is planning to send dozens of additional planes supported with fuel to Israel, in preparation for a possible escalation of a military operation against Iran. This move comes as part of studies on military options that include targeting key Iranian facilities, such as power plants and nuclear sites, as well as bombing underground locations believed to be nuclear facilities. Washington has carried out strikes in recent days against Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz and southern Iran, amid an Iranian escalation against U.S. forces in the region. There is also an intention to increase the number of fuel-equipped aircraft at Ben Gurion Airport and restore their levels to what they were before the war. President Trump has not yet made a decision but is considering escalation options to pressure Iran into opening the Strait of Hormuz and accepting its nuclear demands, with a decision possibly expected in the coming days.
