Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has informed the Biden administration that Israel is willing to strike Iranian military targets rather than nuclear or oil facilities, reserving these for potential future escalation, according to an exclusive report by the Washington Post citing officials familiar with the matter. The Prime Minister's office responded, stating, 'We listen to the opinions of the American administration, but we will make our final decisions based on Israel's national interests.' This approach suggests a more limited counterstrike aimed at preventing a wider conflict.
