- "Fox News": The White House is seriously considering the option of launching new military strikes
U.S. media reports indicate that Washington is considering new military and economic options to deal with Iran, amid preparations for the possibility of resuming military operations and diverging views within President Donald Trump’s administration regarding next steps.
Axios, citing officials, reported that the U.S. military is finalizing preparations for the possibility of resuming war against Iran, while Trump administration officials support continuing the siege on Tehran and tightening economic pressure for as long as possible.
The website, citing a knowledgeable source, noted that the U.S. administration’s stance toward Iran following the Republicans’ loss in the midterm elections remains unclear, while diplomats have warned that Tehran’s boasting about the election results could push Trump back toward war.
In the same context, Fox News, citing informed sources, reported that the White House is seriously considering the option of carrying out new U.S. military strikes against Iran, adding that this possibility could pose an obstacle to changes in the leadership of the Department of Defense.
The network quoted a White House official as saying that the election results would have looked entirely different had it not been for the war with Iran.
These developments suggest that the option of resuming strikes is still under consideration, alongside an internal trend within the U.S. administration to continue the siege and economic pressure, without announcing a final decision to return to military operations.
