Trump says he is considering limited strike on Iran
President Trump is weighing targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear and missile sites to pressure Tehran during stalled negotiations, with a 10–15 day deadline for a deal, officials say.
- On Friday, President Donald Trump said, `I guess I can say that I am considering that`, warning limited strikes on Iran are possible and he would decide within 10 days.
- Indirect talks have shown little progress, leaving negotiations deadlocked as the administration pushes concessions and builds the largest U.S. military presence in the Middle East, with Trump stating, `We have to make a meaningful deal otherwise bad things happen.`
- People familiar with the plans said an opening assault would target military or government sites, the U.S. has sent the USS Abraham Lincoln and ordered the USS Gerald R. Ford to the Middle East, and reports say a strike could occur as soon as this weekend.
- Iran's UN envoy Amir Saeid Iravani warned U.S. bases would be legitimate targets, Iranian naval forces held drills in the Gulf, and Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia filed a war powers resolution seeking congressional approval.
- Analysts warn Iran expert Ali Vaez says Iran would treat any kinetic action as an existential threat, while U.S. officials caution limited strikes risk broader conflict and collapse talks.
