[Ravid: "The likelihood of the U.S. launching a ground operation against Iran is increasing day by day"]

Barak Ravid, a journalist from Axios, is considered to have the "most reliable sources" regarding the Iran conflict.

Ravid believes that the current stage between the U.S. and Iran is merely "negotiations before negotiations," while U.S. military forces are being massively reinforced in the region. In addition to the 10,000 troops already deployed, an equal number of additional forces will be sent. Ravid is certain that deploying such a force is certainly not "for a vacation."

"Assembling such a large-scale ground force in the Middle East is no mere show of strength—they’re not here for a holiday. Deploying such a massive military presence will almost certainly lead to actual use. Therefore, while we discuss diplomatic efforts, we must closely monitor current developments in the region. I believe the likelihood of the U.S. launching a ground operation against Iran is increasing day by day."
