Israel is preparing for possible new military action against Iran, either in coordination with the US or independently, Anadolu reports citing Israeli media.

The Israel Hayom newspaper says the Israeli army is preparing for a potential attack against Iran while maintaining close intelligence and operational cooperation with the US military.

The report adds that Israel is also getting ready for possible preemptive action or a response to an Iranian attack, although it has assessed the likelihood of an attack on Israel or the US before the American midterm elections as relatively low.

Israel continues to view Iran’s nuclear programme as a major concern, the newspaper adds.
