Iranian nuclear physicist and Revolutionary Guard officer Mohsen Fakhrizadeh was killed in 2019 by a satellite-controlled weapon that had been smuggled into Iran. This incident raised concerns about Israel’s role in such targeted attacks and the possibility of strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Recent tensions between Israel and Iran, fueled by missile attacks and assassinations, have increased the risk of a direct conflict. While Iran denies developing nuclear weapons, evidence suggests otherwise, with fears of its nuclear program advancing. Israel believes Iran poses an existential threat and has hinted at potential military action against Iran’s nuclear sites, a move that could have wide-reaching consequences including nuclear contamination and further proliferation. The difficulty of destroying Iran’s buried facilities, like Natanz, poses a challenge, with the potential need for ground operations in addition to airstrikes. The decision on how to respond to Iran’s actions rests on Israel weighing various options and considering the long-term implications of their actions. Time may be a crucial factor in determining the best course of action, as it could allow for diplomatic solutions or changes in leadership that might alter the situation.
