Trump has vowed to escalate military strikes on Iran to force Tehran back to talks, following an attack on US troops in Jordan and stalled negotiations over its nuclear program and the Strait of Hormuz.
US President Donald Trump has vowed to intensify military action against Iran as tensions between both countries continue to escalate.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Trump told aides he plans to resume heavy strikes aimed at forcing Tehran back to the negotiating table. The move follows Iran’s recent attack on US troops in Jordan and subsequent American retaliatory strikes, with Trump accusing Iranian officials of negotiating in bad faith.
Trump is considering a concentrated campaign targeting Iran’s missile infrastructure, while continuing to demand Tehran abandon its nuclear ambitions and guarantee free passage through the Strait of Hormuz. US and Iranian officials remain far apart on negotiations as both sides continue to exchange threats and military pressure.
