Analyst warns of another attack on Iran in 24-48 hours

An international analyst has expressed the fear of another US attack on Iran within the next 24 to 48 hours. He made such comments in the context of the recent geopolitical situation and diplomatic impasse.
Mohammad Elmasri believes that pressure and advice from various influential circles play an important role in the US's political decisions. He claims that in the current situation, the influence of multiple strong positions is visible at the policymaking level.
He also said that the situation has become complicated due to the lack of diplomatic progress as expected by the US. Especially since the desired results are not achieved in the talks surrounding Iran, new tensions may increase.
According to Professor Elmasri, a possible conflict surrounding Iran could have a major impact on political and economic aspects. He believes that a long-term conflict could create a new crisis for the parties involved.
Earlier this year, tensions between Iran and the US and Israel turned into a conflict. After weeks of fighting, a negotiated ceasefire took effect. Since then, there have been no major clashes, but there are ongoing discussions about the possibility of renewed tensions.
