Israel and United States military operations against Iran

Overview

In October 2026, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz disclosed details regarding joint military operations conducted by Israel and the United States against Iran. Katz identified two specific operations: “Rising Lion,” which he stated destroyed the Iranian nuclear program, and “Lion’s Roar,” a cooperative mission involving the use of precision-targeted one-ton explosive warheads. Katz noted that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made the decision to strike targets located 2,000 kilometers away.

By November 2026, Katz declared that the mission regarding Iran remains unfinished, accusing Tehran of attempting to renew efforts to acquire nuclear weapons. This follows reports that the military offensive launched in late February resulted in the deaths of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and other high-ranking regime figures. The conflict has expanded to involve Hezbollah and Yemeni Houthi rebels, impacting regional stability across Lebanon, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and the Persian Gulf.

During a memorial ceremony in Jerusalem on November 8, Katz emphasized that Israel remains prepared for all scenarios and will pursue a proactive, offensive policy. He reaffirmed that Israeli forces will not withdraw from security zones in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria. Additionally, Katz warned that Hezbollah would face “extremely severe blows” if it participates in an attack against Israel alongside Iran. These developments occur amidst a political transition in Israel following parliamentary elections on October 27, with opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot tasked with forming a new government.
