Israel is coordinating closely with the United States as tensions in the Strait of Hormuz threaten the stability of a ceasefire with Iran. According to a report citing an Israeli source, both countries are preparing for the possibility of renewed military strikes if negotiations fail.

The reported plans, largely finalized before the early April ceasefire, would target Iranian energy facilities and senior Iranian figures. The objective would be limited in scope, aimed at pressuring Tehran to make further concessions in ongoing talks rather than triggering a broader conflict.

Any decision to resume military action would depend on President Donald Trump, who has expressed frustration over stalled negotiations and the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz while signaling reluctance to escalate into a wider war. Israeli officials are said to be skeptical about the success of diplomatic efforts, and recent Iranian missile activity toward the Gulf has accelerated Israeli preparations.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has held a series of restricted security meetings in recent days and instructed ministers to avoid public statements on Iran as contingency planning continues.
