According to Israeli officials who spoke to Axios, this morning’s strikes by the Israeli Air Force against a natural gas processing plant in Southern Iran was coordinated with and approved by the Trump Administration, despite President Trump having previously objected to Israeli strikes against oil depots and other energy infrastructure in Tehran. It is not known if these strikes were also coordinated with other nations in the Middle East, like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates, who’s oil and gas facilities will likely suffered the most from potential retaliation for the attack by Iran.

While testifying today in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard contradicted claims made by Israel and the Trump Administration both prior and since the launch of strike operations against Iran, stating that Iran’s nuclear enrichment program had been “obliterated” in last year’s Operation Midnight Hammer and that the intelligence community assessed there has been no attempts to resume enrichment activity by Tehran. Gabbard further states that it is not the job of the intelligence community to determine what is and isn’t an “imminent threat,” but instead the job of the President.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump wants no more strikes on Iranian energy sites after Wednesday’s attack by Israel on a natural gas processing plant serving Iran’s South Pars Offshore Gas Field, which was known about and supported by President Trump, U.S. officials tell the Wall Street Journal.
President Trump supported today’s strikes as a message to Tehran over its attempts to block the Strait of Hormuz, but believes Iran got the message and is now against attacks on Iranian energy infrastructure, the officials said. But Trump could once again be open to targeting more Iranian energy facilities depending on Tehran's future actions in the Strait.

The World Health Organization (WHO) is preparing for a nuclear catastrophe, a potential “worst-case scenario” for the Middle East, if the ongoing conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States escalates further, sources tell Politico.
U.N. staff are monitoring the fallout of strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites and remain "vigilant" for any type of nuclear threat, according to Hanan Balkhy, WHO Regional Director for the Eastern Mediterranean. “The worst-case scenario is a nuclear incident, and that's something that worries us the most,” Balkhy said. “As much as we prepare, there's nothing that can prevent the harm that will come … the region's way — and globally if this eventually happens — and the consequences are going to last for decades.”

Staff are prepared for a nuclear incident in its “broader sense,” including an attack on a nuclear facility or the use of a weapon, Balkhy said. “We are thinking about it, and we're just really hoping that it does not happen.”

The Pentagon has asked the White House to approve a more than $200 billion request to Congress to fund the ongoing Iran War, according to a senior administration official, in an enormous new ask that is almost certain to run into serious resistance from Democrats and Republicans in Congress. The amount being requested would far surpass the costs of the Trump Administration’s massive airstrike campaign against Iran to date and instead seek to urgently increase production of critical weaponry expended by the U.S. Army, Air Force, and Navy in strikes against and defending from attacks by Iran, according to three other people familiar with the matter who spoke to the Washington Post.
