  1. Iran has sent urgent messages through Arab and European mediators expressing a desire to end the current conflict with Israel and resume negotiations over its nuclear program, on the condition that the US stays out of Israel’s attacks.

    Meanwhile, Israel has intensified its military campaign deep inside Iran, striking multiple sites including near Tehran, Ahvaz, and Mashhad, and warning civilians to evacuate targeted areas.

    Also, an even more recent [report](https://www.ynetnews.com/article/sude402fu) stated that Iran will agree to flexibility in nuclear talks in exchange for ceasefire with Israel.

    >Iran has approached Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Oman to ask U.S. President Donald Trump to pressure Israel to immediately agree to a ceasefire. This was reported by Reuters from sources in the region and Iranian sources, who added that in return for the ceasefire, Iran would offer “flexibility in negotiations with the U.S. on its nuclear program.”

    Meanwhile, other reports indicate the US is [sending another aircraft carrier](https://www.ynetnews.com/article/51k80gz40) to the middle east.

  2. incredibly pathetic honestly,whooped their ass faster then the six day war

  3. Wow – the “Six Day War: 4 Day Version” joke actually ended up being true.

  4. Iran is starting to feel the pressure. Nuclear facilities destroyed, countless pieces of military hardware destroyed, top generals killed, Nuclear scientists killed. Their proxies are in shambles, and their leadership gutted. Israel has total air supremacy over Iran. They’ve been set back significantly where before October 7th, they thought they were in a strong position to challenge Israel.

    Personally I believe they were, but vastly underestimated Israel’s response, and the coordination of their proxies. Israel has been ready to dish this out at any time, with troves of intelligence supplied by the west. Irans facade is beginning to crumble. Yet through any desire to end the conflict comes assurances. Can Iran be trusted to dismantle their nuclear program? Will they not just rearm, and be ready for the next fight?

    Only time will tell.

  5. Ok, this is good news. Now can they commit to not funding Hamas and Hezbollah?

    Then we could have a really good shot of having peace amongst the region…..

  6. That’s good news.

    I doubt Israel will go for it though. As we’ve seen with gaza they’re quite intent on completing whatever goal they set themselves even with significant external pressure

  7. Maybe they want to save their uranium for the next round . Israel can’t send ground troops so it should be easy to hide as nobody really knows how much they have. Russia (and china) will replace systems and then we have the same situation as before in 3 years . I think only a regime change lets Israel stop .

  9. The US and Israel need to demand that Iran concede everything short of toppling the government. No more proxies, no nukes, nothing.

    And while I’m not sure that Trump has the maneuverability to do so, the US should fire off some really big warning shots to show that they mean it.

  10. It’s good to see that the war should be coming to an end soon, but how it started/ended is notable.

    Strongmen all over the world will point to this moment as proof that “preemptive strikes work” and say “I can do this against our enemies.” This attack only worked so well because the Iranian regime vastly underestimated Israel’s significant advantage over them.

    If Pakistan tries this against India, or China against Taiwan, then the results are far more likely to look like Russia’s invasion of Ukraine: an attempt at a quick decapitation offensive that fails and bogs down into static trench warfare.

  11. They’re expecting Trump to help with a ceasefire? Ukraine’s been waiting 5 months for him to make a deal he promised in 24 hours. not sure how much of Iran’s military or nuclear program will be left by then.

  12. They just have no cards. They have 2,000 ballistic missiles which will runout soon if they fire hundreds everyday. And their aiming is dogshit. Iran and Israel aren’t adjacent so can’t run Israel over with manpower. Saying that Israel wins only by the grace of American weapons.

  13. They shouldn’t, the Iranian people are continuing this war, they want the regime out, they have already just recently killed an IRGC member themselves, and seem to be moving onto others:

    Down with the regime,
    marg Bah Khomeini!

  14. I hate to say this but in order for this to stop Israel is going to have to be guaranteed in no uncertain terms that Iran has abandoned its nuclear program.
    But what would that look like?
    Iran will just lie and deceive and try to work in secret. Israel’s only guarantee might be regime change.

  15. Based on the last 40 years of antagonistic behavior between the two, and what appears to be relative ease of Israeli forces overwhelming Iran defense and offense capabilities, I don’t see why Israel stops short of regime change.

  17. I don’t understand why Iran would want to make a deal. Trump’s word means nothing. He already ripped up the deal Obama made.

  18. Makes sense they’re starting to run out of missiles, which is their only way to fight back

  19. Ynet isn’t exactly the most reliable source for a non Israeli perspective.

  20. I said it before, Iran is in a lose-lose situation – The situation is intolerable but their options to retaliate are limited and prone to backfire. The only way out being an agreement with the U.S. on much less favorable terms than were possible a week ago.

    Also, if the U.S. does decide to gets involved (strategic bomber wise), what can Iran actually do about it? What new red line could they possibly draw with their hand even weaker?

  21. Holy shit, Iran got its shit kicked in so hard they are PUBLICALLY saying uncle.

    Wild. Absolutely Wild

  22. Somewhere out there in some bunker, the Iranian top officials are chuckling at the fact that it took this long for the Israelis to do as it did despite all that it did to Israel.

  23. The question is: what is Iran going to offer Israel in return?

    Why would Israel stop now?

    Why would Israel gambling on a new period of conflict when Trump leaves office.

    I’d say this is their moment.

    I cannot see it in another way. Does someone have counter arguments?

  24. Israel has complete air superiority now. They aren’t stopping until all nuclear and ballistic is completely destroyed. They’ll likely go for regime change too.

  25. Iran can’t escalate, regardless of all the headlines. With losing air superiority to Israel, Iran faces the loss of basic infrastructure at the discretion of their enemy. Consider that every power plant in Iran can be destroyed. Not damaged and needing repair. Destroyed.

    I think the most likely end is not nuclear restrictions, but total elimination of the effort. Also ending the export of most weapons. Iran has lost the capability to defend every fixed asset except those buried under a mountain.

    The problem may become having no single leader in Iran who can negotiate.

    The revolutionary guard/military is the nature successor to the Ayatollah.
