US and Israel have finalized a comprehensive plan for large-scale strikes against Iran's energy infrastructure, which is now ready for execution.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that this information was disclosed by the Axios portal, citing sources in the United States, Israel, and the Middle East.
International mediators have expressed serious concern regarding the escalating situation. According to these sources, potential retaliatory measures from Iran following such strikes could lead to the following consequences:
- Significant damage to oil facilities in the Persian Gulf countries;
- Destruction of critical water management infrastructure across the region.
Previously, Axios reported that US President Donald Trump's administration and Iranian officials were discussing the possibility of a 45-day ceasefire. However, diplomatic sources emphasize that the probability of reaching any agreement within the next 48 hours remains extremely low.
The tension between the regional powers comes amid a period of heightened military readiness in the Middle East. The strategic significance of the Persian Gulf as a global energy hub means that any military escalation could have profound impacts on international oil markets and regional security. Azerbaijan, maintaining its position as a key energy player and advocate for regional stability, continues to monitor the developments closely as part of its commitment to peace and security in the neighborhood.
