An Israeli intelligence senior official informed Fox News exclusively on Saturday, stating, “We have more surprises coming up” for Iran after the initial phase of strikes in “Operation Rising Lion.”

The high-ranking source, addressing Fox News Chief Foreign Correspondent Trey Yingst, mentioned that Israeli intelligence anticipates Iran will possess an arsenal of 8,000 ballistic missiles in the next two years, which contributed to the decision to initiate the operation. At present, Israel estimates Iran has approximately 2,000 missiles.

“We cannot conclude this operation knowing we will face the same situation two years from now,” the official stated. “Everything is proceeding as planned. In fact, even better than expected.”

The official added: “We have lots of surprises. Not just the ones we already did. We have more surprises coming up.”

However, the bulk of the conflict with Iran could largely be over in a matter of days.   

“I think we can finish it in days… It’s a good thing that we have the U.S. by our side,” the official said. 

The official also told Fox News that the U.S. is “fully coordinated” with Israel, yet declined to go into specifics.
