BREAKING: U.S. Iran Invasion Paused; 40 Refuelers in Israel; Energy War Threat | TBN Israel

IRAN: The United States was prepared to carry out a sudden attack on Iran — but at the last moment, President Donald Trump halted the strike after appeals from Mohammed bin Salman, Erdoğan, and Gulf leaders. The attack is not canceled forever. It is frozen as long as the negotiations continue and as long as Trump believes a deal can be reached quickly.

U.S. MILITARY ALERT: Thirty American refueling aircraft are already in Israel, with ten more on the way. Israel’s Air Force and air defense systems remain on high alert, while the IDF prepares for the possibility that Iran could drag Israel into the campaign. Strategic facilities in Haifa Bay, the Mediterranean Sea, and Israel’s offshore gas platforms are now under increased protection.

IRAN COLLAPSE: American military pressure is pushing the Revolutionary Guards toward economic collapse, while Iran is falling apart from within. The regime is trying to project strength, but Tehran is under pressure, its currency is collapsing, and new details are emerging about the hunt for Iran’s supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei.

REGIONAL PRESSURE: The strike was stopped after heavy diplomatic pressure from Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and other Gulf countries. From Tehran’s perspective, preventing another American attack without visible concessions is being presented as a victory. From Israel’s perspective, this may only be a dangerous pause before a much larger round.

LEBANON: Over the weekend, the IDF used 700 tons of explosives to destroy strategic Hezbollah tunnels built by Iran for the Badr force in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah continued challenging IDF forces on the Ali Taher Ridge, where an officer from the Egoz reconnaissance unit was wounded and the terrorist was eliminated.

ENERGY WAR: Iran is threatening to retaliate against energy facilities across the Middle East, including Israel’s Leviathan and Tamar gas fields, as well as oil and gas infrastructure in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain. Iranian-linked attacks were also reported near the Strait of Hormuz, while Tehran warns of “comprehensive retaliation” if the United States strikes Iranian infrastructure.

WHAT COMES NEXT: The question now is whether this is the beginning of a new regional arrangement — or only a short pause before the next round. The United States, Israel, and the Gulf are all preparing for the possibility that if negotiations collapse, the next attack on Iran could be far larger and far more dangerous.
