Iran Readies to Target US Military Bases According to credible sources cited by The New York Times, Iran is making preparations to target US military installations in the region. This development occurs as reports from US sources had indicated earlier deployments of fighter jets to the same area. The newspaper's report further notes that US commanders have instructed their personnel in the region to maintain a heightened state of readiness amid concerns of a potential escalation into a broader conflict. In a recent report, Al Jazeera TV, referencing undisclosed Israeli sources, suggested that the US might participate in an attack on Iran alongside Israel as soon as tonight. Iranian officials have reiterated on multiple occasions their intentions to strike military bases if faced with threats from Washington. These revelations about potential US involvement in the Iran-Israel conflict emerge as Washington, as stated in an assessment, expressed concerns that Israel's defense against missiles could last only 12 days without US assistance.
