Israel is reportedly looking to wrap up its bombing campaign against Iran after the US joined its strikes against the Islamic Republic’s nuclear sites, and has conveyed as much in a message to Tehran via mediators.

The Wall Street Journal, citing Israeli and Arab officials, reported that Jerusalem is seeking to seize on the accomplishments of the US strikes on facilities in Natanz, Fordo and Isfahan to end the war in the coming days.

Arab officials told The Journal that the US has told Arab partners to pass the message to Iran that Israel is looking to end the operation — which it launched 10 days ago — soon. However, according to the officials, Iran still feels it has to respond to Sunday’s US strikes.

The newspaper reported that Israeli officials are hoping Tehran will agree to restart diplomacy on its nuclear program in the wake of the conflict.

According to Channel 12 news, Israel believes it will reach its military objectives for Operation Rising Lion — removing the Iranian nuclear and ballistic missile threat from Israel — in the next few days.

 On Sunday, an Israeli official told The Times of Israel that Jerusalem is willing to end the bombing campaign if Iran agrees to dismantle its nuclear program. “It depends on Iran, not on us,” the official said. “We are happy to wrap it up now; if there’s an agreement at the end, Israel will be content with the result.

There are two options for ending the campaign itself, Channel 12 reported: Israel can unilaterally declare it has achieved its war aims, and Iran will subsequently end its missile strikes; or the US can announce that both sides have agreed to a ceasefire, something Israel sees as less desirable.

If Iran does not stop firing at Israel, the Walla news site reported on Monday, Israel will intensify its strikes with a focus on undermining the regime. The strikes carried out Monday on high-profile regime targets in the heart of Tehran were meant to preview what Israel may do if Iran doesn’t agree to stop firing at Israel, according to the report.
