Parallel to statements by senior officials in the political echelon ahead of the resumption of nuclear talks in Vienna on Monday, the IDF is accelerating its preparations for a military option in case the diplomatic moves fall through, Maariv reports.
According to the report, the emphasis is on the Air Force, and the preparations include training for various scenarios, some of which are carried out outside the country's borders. But according to various estimates, until a proven operational capability is achieved, another time period of over a year will be required.
