Trump says US may do another military operation against Iran

Trump said another strike could come as the war nears eight months and oil prices remain about 50% higher than before the conflict, Reuters reported.

  • On Friday in Florida, President Donald Trump said the United States may launch another military operation against Iran as the war nears its eight-month mark and rising fuel prices weigh on midterm elections.
  • Eight months of conflict have left the United States and Iran locked in stalemate, with the administration claiming progress while analysts contend Trump remains no closer to victory than in summer.
  • The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps recently launched about 30 attacks on ships in regional waters, the highest rate since February, while crude oil prices remain about 50% higher than prewar levels.
  • Trump remarked, "We may do another little Epic Fury," referring to the military campaign's codename, contradicting his earlier claim that the U.S. would avoid attacks before midterm elections.
  • Tehran continues to leverage crude oil exports and regional influence, while some foreign policy analysts suggest Iran's leadership may eventually prefer peace over prolonged conflict despite the current military stalemate.
