Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the wedding of his eldest son Avner in order to lull the vigilance of the Iranian leadership before the strike. This was reported by the American newspaper The Wall Street Journal. ![]() According to Israeli and American intelligence sources, it was no coincidence that the Israeli prime minister announced that he was going on vacation in connection with Avner's wedding, scheduled for June 16. This happened several days before the start of the IDF operation against Iran. Netanyahu wanted Tehran not to know his real location and not to expect an attack until at least June 17. The publication noted that none of Netanyahu's close friends or relatives, including Avner, knew that the prime minister would not attend the wedding and that it would have to be postponed due to the fighting. According to the authors of the article, the story of Netanyahu's son's wedding is only part of a larger campaign to disinform Tehran. Another part of it was the leaks of Israeli and American media about the rift between Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump. According to these "leaks", the White House opposed strikes on Iran, and Tel Aviv allegedly did not dare to launch the operation without Washington's approval.
