The US fears Israel will attack Iran's nuclear facilities.

According to RIA Novosti on June 12, the Washington Post reported that the US is concerned about a possible Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear facilities.

"In recent months, U.S. intelligence officials have become increasingly concerned that Israel could attack Iranian nuclear facilities without U.S. consent," the Washington Post reported.

According to this publication, the US is taking steps to strengthen security measures and prepare for emergency responses.

"The U.S. is on high alert for the possibility of an Israeli attack on Iran," the Washington Post added, noting that such a move by Israel could undermine negotiations between Washington and Tehran on Iran's nuclear program.

Meanwhile, CBS News, citing US officials, reported that Israel is fully prepared to begin military operations in Iran.

Iran and the United States, with Oman acting as a mediator, have held five rounds of indirect talks on Iran's nuclear program. The most recent round took place in Rome on May 23rd. Following the talks, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced mechanisms proposed by Oman that could help remove obstacles to the negotiation process. The Iranian Foreign Minister stated that such progress could be achieved in one or two rounds. However, the main obstacle remains Iran's ability to enrich uranium.

During the negotiations, the U.S. is seeking assurances that Iran is incapable of developing nuclear weapons. Tehran has denied such plans and is seeking the lifting of U.S. sanctions.
