US and Israel reportedly weigh renewed strikes on Iran over nuclear rebuild

The Jerusalem Post·13 October 2026

Axios reports that senior US officials say Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed with President Donald Trump the possibility of renewing military strikes on Iran before Israeli elections. Netanyahu reportedly cited alleged Iranian efforts to rebuild its nuclear capacity. The report rests on anonymous sources and no strike has been confirmed, but a possible return to direct Israel-Iran fighting with American involvement would mark a material step toward wider regional war, which Scripture places around Israel in the last days (Ezekiel 38).
