As Trump cites progress on deal to end war, Iran and Israel remain on alert

The Washington Post (via Yahoo Canada) · back to the audit

As President Donald Trump said he was canceling a planned strike on Iran - citing progress toward a deal to end the war - there was no immediate sign of a breakthrough in Tehran, and Israel said it remained on high alert.

Israel has been on high alert over the past week because of threats of renewed strikes from Iran.

If Iran fires toward the state of Israel, we are prepared to attack it. (Eli Cohen, Israel Energy and Infrastructure Minister, in an interview Sunday with Galatz Army Radio)

There is very close defense and intelligence coordination between Israel and the U.S. (Eli Cohen)

Iran's acting defense minister, Majid Ebn-e-Reza, called Trump's post a form of 'psychological operations and cognitive warfare' (per the article).
