– Israeli security sources have told ABC News and CNN that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has approved a set of targets for retaliation strikes on Iran, considered imminent, following the Oct.1 major Iranian ballistic missile attack on Israel.
Still, no timeline has been given—only that the attack is expected to be carried out before November 5th, election day in America. "American officials expect Israel will retaliate against this month’s Iranian attack before November 5, sources tell CNN — a timeline that would thrust the growing volatility in the Middle East squarely into public view within days of the US presidential election," CNN has written. Russia and China are among the lone global voices urging against any new attack or escalation from Israel.
On Thursday Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov conveyed Russia’s position that Israel must not even think about hitting Iran’s nuclear energy sites or infrastructure.
He said that any "hypothetical" Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities would be "catastrophic" – as quoted in TASS.
"We have repeatedly warned and continue to warn, to caution [Israel] against even hypothetically considering the possibility of a strike on nuclear facilities and nuclear infrastructure [of Iran]," Ryabkov said. "This would be a catastrophic development and a complete negation of those postulates in the area of ensuring nuclear safety that exist."
Netanyahu has reportedly told the White House that Israel will commit to attacking only Iranian military sites; however, reports out of Israel continue to suggest that all options remain on the table.
Any potential Israeli strikes on Iran are also expected to target underground bunkers which conceal ballistic missiles, possibly with US-supplied munitions such as bunker busting ordinance. US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin in commenting on the fresh action over Yemen hinted at this.
"This was a unique demonstration of the United States’ ability to target facilities that our adversaries seek to keep out of reach, no matter how deeply buried underground, hardened or fortified," he said.
Austin specified that targets were successfully struck at "five hardened underground weapons storage locations in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen."
According to more on this new attack against a group seen as Iran’s proxy on the Arabian peninsula, and how it sets up for potential further military action against Iran:
The B-2 would be used in any American attack on hardened Iranian nuclear facilities like Natanz or Fordo given it is the only aircraft in service that can drop the GBU-57, known as the "Massive Ordnance Penetrator."
