Iranian government spokesperson Fatima Mahajrani responded to the possibility of an Israeli strike against her country, saying: 'We will respond to any Israeli threat directed at our nuclear facilities. We don't want new conflicts in the region, which is why we are conducting indirect negotiations with Washington.' The AP news agency yesterday quoted an Israeli source saying that 'Israel is conveying its priorities to Washington regarding any agreement. As part of this, Israel understands that if it chooses to carry out a strike on Iran - it will likely do so alone, as negotiations continue.'
