Israel and the U.S. were coordinated before the American strike on the nuclear facility in Fordow. U.S. President Donald Trump spoke with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a few hours before the strike and updated him on his decision. Senior officials in Israel were confident in recent days that Trump would eventually join, but in parallel, Israel prepared to 'handle' Fordow in case Trump backed out. The war management cabinet convened in a bunker last night and monitored the American strike, dispersing afterward.
