Netanyahu and US Defense Secretary meet at Negev airbase
Sources have revealed a secret visit by U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to the occupied territories. During the visit, he held a closed-door meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the Ofer Air Base in the Negev. The discussion focused on the Iranian issue and battlefield positioning, with particular emphasis on coordinating military deterrence and managing regional challenges, amid expectations of an imminent military operation against Iran.analyses suggest that this visit is part of potential military and political mobilization, considering the electoral calculations in the United States and Israel. Additionally, it involved coordination aimed at determining the timing of the impending strike, possibly prior to the U.S. midterm elections or Israel's Knesset elections, to secure political gains. American maneuvers are linked to escalating regional tensions, especially the increasing coordination between Iran and Moscow. Some experts believe that the likelihood of military action is primarily driven by internal political and security requirements, with unwavering U.S. support for Israel continuing in this endeavor.
