U.S. President Donald Trump has not made a final decision but is increasingly inclined toward launching a limited strike against Iran within days, aiming to signal to Tehran that it must relinquish any pathway to developing a nuclear weapon, the New York Times reported, citing advisers. The newspaper reported that potential targets under review include facilities linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, key nuclear infrastructure and elements of Iran's ballistic missile program.

The report added that Trump has told advisers that if such measures fail to compel Iranian compliance, he could consider a broader military campaign later in the year, potentially designed to weaken the rule of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Signals are increasing that Iran may direct its proxies to attack U.S. targets in the Middle East and Europe should President Donald Trump order strikes against the country, the New York Times reported, citing U.S.

and Western security officials. No specific plot has been detected, the report said, but intelligence intercepts of communications have increased, indicating some coordination and planning is taking place between Iran and its proxies. According to the Times, officials are concerned Iran could push the Houthis to resume attacks on Western ships in the Red Sea, while Hezbollah or Al Qaeda cells could be employed to attack U.S.

bases and embassies. One senior U.S. official told the newspaper that the United States was tracking "a lot" of activity, but it was unclear what would provoke an attack. ■ Another round of negotiations between the United States and Iran is confirmed for this coming Thursday in Geneva, Switzerland – Oman said in a post on X. ■ Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has named successors for himself and key positions within the military amid ongoing tensions with the United States and domestic turmoil, according to a new report.

■ Students held protests ⁠which led to ‌clashes at several Iranian universities for ‌a second day, according to local news ⁠agencies and social media posts. ■ Israel Police forcibly dispersed about 100 demonstrators gathered in Tel Aviv Sunday to protest a surge in settler violence in the West Bank and Saturday's attacks on the village of al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah. ■ Thirty-four people suspected of involvement in shootings and other violent crimes were arrested overnight in northern Israel's Kafr Kana, hours after a drone dropped a grenade on a house that was also sprayed with gunfire, wounding four residents.

■ The Shas, United Torah Judaism and Otzma Yehudit parties announced Sunday they will support a bill to ban egalitarian prayer at Jerusalem's Western Wall, just hours after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cancelled a government vote on the legislation. About 100 people marched through Tel Aviv Sunday to protest a surge in settler violence in the West Bank. Protesters began their march after Israel Police forcibly dispersed a demonstration outside the Tel Aviv government complex.

Police declared the protest illegal, stating organizers did not have the necessary permit. Chants of "From Gaza to Jenin, Free Palestine" were heard in Arabic as demonstrators convened around the Tel Aviv Cinematheque. Others shouted, "The Zionists are cruel occupiers, every occupation ends," and "settler violence under the cover of soldiers." A group of right-wing activists confronted the demonstrators, calling them "traitors" and "whores of the Arabs." Other protesters shouted back, "On the front and on the home front, every soldier is a partner to murder." Dozens of right-wing activists protested at the entrance to a peace conference held Sunday in Pardes Hannah.

The event is sponsored by Peace Partnership, a coalition of Jewish and Arab groups. Far-right activists have been waging a campaign against the conference since learning about it and have pressed both the municipality and the police to cancel it. The protesters shouted "traitors" and waved signs bearing a photo of Rabbi Meir Kahane. One protester called out, "Welcome to the conference of terror supporters." One activist was arrested by police after pushing participants as they arrived at the event.

Kahane was a U.S.-born rabbi and politician known for his advocacy of the expulsion of Arabs from Israel and the Palestinian territories. He founded the Kach party, which was banned in Israel for its racist platform and later designated a terrorist organization by Israel, the U.S., and other countries. Kahane was assassinated in New York in 1990. Another round of negotiations between the United States and Iran is confirmed for this coming Thursday in Geneva, Switzerland – Oman confirmed Sunday evening in a post on X.

Oman's Foreign Minister Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi, who has mediated previous rounds of talks between Iran and the U.S., wrote he is "Pleased to confirm" the talks are set, "with a positive push to go the extra mile towards finalizing the deal." Minutes after the talks were confirmed by Oman, Iran's president Masoud Pezeshkian said that recent talks with the U.S. "yielded encouraging signals," and added that Iran will "continue to closely monitor U.S.

actions and have made all necessary preparations for any potential scenario." Israel Police forcibly dispersed demonstrators gathered in Tel Aviv Sunday to protest a surge in settler violence in the West Bank and Saturday's attacks on the village of al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah. About 100 people gathered outside the Tel Aviv government complex, as some protesters attempted to block the road.

Police declared the protest illegal, saying organizers did not have the necessary approvals. Officers gave demonstrators two minutes to clear the scene before they began forcibly removing those blocking traffic. About 100 people gathered outside the Tel Aviv government complex Sunday to protest a surge in settler violence in the West Bank and Saturday's attacks on the village of al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah.

Activists chanted "Free Palestine" in Arabic as the crowd repeated the slogan, "Murder and abuse, it's all because of Zionism." Others shouted, "Hasbara won't help, Zionism is terrorism!" and "Free the prisoners, arrest the settlers." One demonstrator, who identified himself only as Ethan, said "state-sanctioned settler violence" in the West Bank is a "form of ethnic cleansing." He added that the violence amounts to a pogrom.

"I don't want that to keep happening," he said. Al-Mughayyir is a Palestinian village northeast of Ramallah with a population of about 4,000. According to village officials, residents once owned nearly 11,000 acres of land. They say about 238 acres remain accessible today, largely the built-up area. Residents say roughly 10 Israeli settler outposts have been established on surrounding hilltops over the past decade.

Village officials say the outposts have restricted access to most of the community's farmland. Israeli troops shot and killed a Palestinian man armed with an explosive device Saturday, the Israeli military said Sunday. According to the IDF, two men carrying an explosive device approached soldiers operating in the West Bank village of Beit Furik, near Nablus. The soldiers opened fire, killing one man and wounding the other, the statement said.

Students held protests ⁠which led to ‌clashes at several Iranian universities for ‌a second day on Sunday, according to local news ⁠agencies and social media posts, with Iran facing a ⁠U.S. military buildup as it seeks to reach a nuclear deal with Washington. The fresh unrest follows anti-government demonstrations last month in which thousands of people were ‌killed in the worst domestic unrest since Iran's 1979 ‌Islamic Revolution.

Iran's state TV carried videos of what it said were individuals "pretending to be students" attacking pro-government students in Tehran who were taking part in protests to condemn January's disturbances, with these individuals allegedly injuring students by throwing rocks. Protests also took place at universities in Mashhad in the northeast, according to videos ⁠published by the U.S.-based rights group HRANA, which said the intervention of security forces in the protests ‌led to injuries.

On ⁠Saturday a video purportedly showed rows ‌of marchers at Tehran's Sharif University of Technology condemning Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as a "murderous leader", and calling ⁠for Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of Iran's toppled shah, to be a new monarch. The recent protests, which started in December over economic hardships ‌and quickly turned political, were repressed in the most violent crackdown since the 1979 Islamic ⁠Revolution.
