Israel Warns US of Potential Iranian Chemical Weapons Threat

Israel shared intelligence with the US claiming Iran is considering chemical weapons use, prompting alarm among some American officials while others dismissed it as a push for strikes on Iran.

Gulf officials questioned the lack of evidence, and a senior Israeli defense official stated Iran has no current chemical capability against the country.

The New York Times reported US Central Command strike plans ready by November 4, but President Trump said he has no plans to attack and called ties with Tehran excellent. Iran denies possessing such weapons and has ratified the global ban.
