Reactions in the Persian Gulf have been mixed: some countries have dismissed the intelligence as irrelevant, while other officials are taking the warnings seriously.
Meanwhile, some US officials have raised doubts about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s intentions. They suspect he is using the warnings to push Donald Trump toward another confrontation with Iran.
