Report says US believes Israel 'fully ready' for attack on Iran

American network CBS reports that US officials have been told Israel is “fully ready to launch an operation into Iran,” citing multiple unnamed sources with knowledge of the situation.

The report, which includes few details, notes that US fears that Iran could retaliate against US personnel stationed in neighboring Iraq prompted the State Department and Pentagon to authorize some US officials and their families to leave the region hours ago, according to a defense official.

US Special envoy Steve Witkoff is still planning on holding talks with Iran over its nuclear program in the coming days, CBS reports, citing two US officials.

There is no comment on the CBS report from US or Israeli officials.
