Israel’s military has been ordered to intensify preparations for a possible conflict across several fronts, according to senior defence officials. The directive follows growing regional uncertainty and ongoing unrest in Iran.
Military leaders have instructed the Israel Defense Forces to accelerate readiness measures, including operational planning, troop preparedness, and coordination across branches. Officials said the move is aimed at ensuring the military can respond quickly to a range of potential threats.
Israeli officials have voiced concern that instability in Iran could lead to actions by allied groups in neighbouring regions, increasing the risk of escalation along Israel’s borders. Some reports have suggested preparations are intended to preserve strategic surprise should conditions deteriorate rapidly.
The government has not announced any immediate offensive plans, and officials stressed that the measures are precautionary. Analysts say the developments reflect Israel’s longstanding approach of maintaining high readiness amid shifting regional dynamics.
