Two familiar officials revealed that Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu told the Biden administration during the call that he plans to attack Iran's military facilities rather than oil or nuclear facilities, which suggests that Israel will take a more limited counterattack to prevent the outbreak of a full-scale “war.” This is the first call since the tense relationship between Biden and Netanyahu continued for months. Officials familiar with the matter say Israel's retaliation will be adjusted to avoid giving the impression of “political interference in the US election.” This shows that Netanyahu understands that the scope of the Israeli attack is likely to reshape the presidential campaign pattern. Affected by this news, international oil prices fell by 2 US dollars, and the decline widened to 4.5% at one point.
