US and Israel reportedly plan renewed Iran strikes after November midterms

Two Israeli sources told ABC News that Israeli and US forces have drawn up plans to resume joint strikes on Iran in the weeks after the 3 November midterms, targeting petrochemical sites and nuclear facilities. The White House says the US will not attack before the election but would not comment on sensitive military plans, and US forces are reportedly repositioning across the Middle East. The plans are unconfirmed and the decision rests with President Trump, but they point to a possible return to open war between Iran, Israel and the United States, with Iranian-backed Houthi attacks already widening the regional threat.
