Israel Aiding U.S. with Intelligence on Strait of Hormuz
(Ynet News) Elisha Ben Kimon - Israel is helping the U.S. manage the Strait of Hormuz crisis through intelligence, a senior Israeli security official said Monday. The official said Israeli strikes on Iranian steel plants earlier this week had caused damage worth billions of dollars and had become a major preoccupation for Tehran. He said Israel was "very close" to achieving the objectives it had set for itself in Iran. On Lebanon, the official said Israel saw a rare opportunity to bring about Hizbullah's disarmament and would not end its campaign there until the safety of residents in northern Israel was assured. He said even if the Iran operation ends, the campaign in Lebanon would continue until its goals are achieved.
