Israel Prepares Attacks on Iranian Energy Infrastructure

Israel is preparing to launch attacks on Iran's energy infrastructure, according to an unnamed senior Israeli defense ministry official who spoke to Reuters on Saturday. The preparation of such strikes signals a potential escalation in the ongoing regional tensions between Israel and Iran, which have been engaged in a shadow conflict across the Middle East for years. Iranian energy facilities, including oil refineries and nuclear installations, would represent high-value strategic targets that could significantly impact Iran's economy and regional influence if attacked.
