Washington and Israel have devised new plans to strike Iran again after the U.S. midterm elections, The New York Times reports, citing senior U.S. officials and other sources. The planning comes as the armed forces of both countries have stepped up military maneuvers in the region to rehearse bombing missions, and as the State Department has ordered nonessential embassy staff and their families to evacuate Saudi Arabia amid the prospect of possible new attacks by Houthi rebels in Yemen. It also comes as Israel prepares for an election in which Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is fighting for re-election.

El Pentágono ha autorizado al Departamento de Seguridad Nacional a ensayar, para su posible despliegue en operaciones en la frontera, un arma conocida informalmente como “rayo de calor”, un artilugio que dirige un haz de ondas electromagnéticas no letales pero que causan una dolorosa sensación de quemadura cuando entran en contacto con la piel. Según la cadena de televisión CNN, el secretario de Defensa, Pete Hegseth, emitió el permiso en un memorando firmado el mes pasado.
