Conditions are ripe to strike Iran's nuclear program, according to a senior security official. Israel will continue to prepare to strike the nuclear project as it will not allow a nuclear Iran. Economic sanctions on Iran serve to restrain but not eliminate the nuclear project. The official also addressed the possibility of an arrangement with the Lebanese government, where the Lebanese army would be authorized to dismantle Hezbollah's infrastructure and move it north of the Litani. The IDF will continue to act to prevent weapons smuggling to Hezbollah. The official also mentioned the possibility of a hostage deal with Hamas, involving a 42-day ceasefire but not an end to the war.
