General Michael Kurilla, commander of the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), arrived in Israel amid heightened tensions in the region and possible preparations for an attack on Iran. The visit has drawn global attention amid growing risks of escalation in the Middle East region, following Iran's recent missile strikes on Israel and tensions between Tehran and Tel Aviv.

According to the sources, General Kurilla's meeting with Israeli military and senior security officials includes discussions on strategic coordination and possible Israeli responses. Officials have so far refrained from commenting on the specific objectives of the visit, but experts say that discussions on the possibility of a strike on Iranian nuclear facilities are on the agenda.
