Israel Alleges Iran’s Expanding Ballistic Missile Program Ahead of Netanyahu-Trump Meeting
According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Israeli regime officials assert that Iran is expanding its ballistic missile defense capabilities, a development they intend to highlight during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s forthcoming meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump. NBC News reports that Netanyahu is expected to argue that Iran’s actions threaten not only Israel but also regional stability and U.S. interests, potentially proposing new military options against Tehran.
The report reveals continued strategic alignment between the U.S. and Israel in pressuring Iran, with concerns over Iran’s missile advancements now central to their narrative. Israeli government claims Iran has not only rebuilt missile defense infrastructure damaged in recent attacks but is accelerating its ballistic missile development – a situation causing particular alarm in Tel Aviv security circles.
This comes despite U.S. claims to have completely destroyed Iran’s strategic capabilities during previous military operations, creating a clear contradiction in official narratives. Analysts suggest the real objective is maintaining a constant threat perception to justify continued pressure and potential military action against Iran.
The timing coincides with Israel’s stalled military operations in Gaza and growing domestic and international pressure on Netanyahu’s government, indicating that highlighting Iran remains a primary tactic for diverting attention from other crises. The U.S. has actively supported this approach through political, military, and media channels.
Experts note that the current focus on Iran’s missile program represents not a sudden security development but rather a continuation of coordinated policies to maintain tension and justify pressure against Tehran – strategies that have repeatedly failed to achieve their stated objectives in the past.
