Israel appears unlikely to carry out a strike on Iran before the end of Passover, a US official tells ABC news while acknowledging the timing could change.

The Jewish holiday begins Monday evening and runs through April 30.

The network also quotes Israeli sources saying Israel twice readied for and then dropped plans to strike Iran this past week, in response to the Islamic Republic’s missile and drone attack early Sunday.
