US Military Prepares for Major Operation Against Iran Amid Tensions

Amid US President Donald Trump's warning of a new attack on Iran, the US military in the Middle East has stepped up preparations for a major military operation. CNN reports that strikes could begin within 96 hours of Trump's order. According to US officials, this time the targets will not be limited to Iran's radars, missile launchers, and military bases. According to the report, US Central Command and Pentagon officials are compiling a detailed list of potential targets. This includes Iran's energy infrastructure, military bases, and nuclear facilities. Officials say the Iranian military has become more familiar with US military strategies than before. This could make it challenging for the US military to destroy all of its targets. However, officials also said that Trump has not made a final decision on military action after the midterm elections. He has backed down at the last minute from hinting at an attack, according to a CNN report.
