IDF Chief Orders Immediate Readiness for War Resumption as Military Intelligence Accelerates Iran Target Bank

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir instructed the military to prepare for an immediate resumption of hostilities with Iran following the collapse of Islamabad talks. The Military Intelligence Directorate is accelerating its target bank development focused on Iranian missile systems, launchers, and supporting infrastructure. The Israeli Air Force is finalizing updated strike plans integrating long-range precision capabilities, including rehearsed opening scenarios designed for rapid transition from planning to execution. The preparations came less than a week after a two-week Pakistan-brokered ceasefire and signal deep Israeli skepticism about diplomatic pathways.

Analysis
Aman's target bank focusing on missile systems and launchers reveals Israeli planners treating the ceasefire as a tactical pause, preparing decapitation-style opening strikes rather than a sustained campaign. IAF rehearsal of broad attack packages signals planning has crossed from contingency into executable operations.
