U.S. prepares for new military strikes against Iran: Report
Trump met top national security officials as the White House prepared contingency plans for renewed strikes and diplomats raced to salvage talks, sources said.
- On Friday, President Donald Trump met with top national security officials to discuss the war with Iran, then announced he would skip his son Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding in the Bahamas to remain in Washington.
- President Trump gave Iran a loose deadline of early next week to submit a suitable offer, frustrated by negotiation pace and seriously considering new strikes against Tehran if talks fail to produce a breakthrough.
- Iranian officials submitted a diplomatic proposal involving the Strait of Hormuz and frozen assets through mediators from Qatar and Pakistan, though the mediators reported "very deep" differences between Iranian and United States positions remain.
- White House spokesperson Anna Kelly stated Trump "made his red lines abundantly clear," declaring Iran cannot possess nuclear weapons or keep enriched uranium, establishing the administration's non-negotiable demands.
- The White House session ended without a decision on next steps as the administration remains prepared to escalate militarily, leaving Washington balancing a potential diplomatic breakthrough against the threat of renewed conflict.
