Iranian attack is still a “work in progress,” intelligence officials tell Biden.
U.S. intelligence officials told President Joe Biden and Vice-President Kamala Harris that the exact timing and nature of an expected Iranian attack on Israel is “unclear,” as the region braces for a likely assault that will involve both Tehran and its Lebanon-based proxy group, Hezbollah.
On Monday evening, Biden held an emergency meeting with the National Security Council and Harris in the White House’s Situation Room.
Intelligence experts told Biden and Harris that the Iranian attack is still a “work in progress” and that Tehran had not made a final decision regarding its scale and timing, according to an Axios report.
