US media claims President Donald Trump seeks a powerful and decisive strike on Iran.
Reports indicate Trump prefers a short, conclusive action over a prolonged war. Israeli media states the army chief has ordered immediate ‘defensive’ preparations, with bomb shelters opening across regions including northern Israel, anticipating a US warning before any strikes.
Trump recently clarified from the Oval Office that no mass executions are planned in Iran based on key sources, noting halted killings; meanwhile, his administration ordered some personnel out of Qatar’s Al Udeid base, followed by Britain’s withdrawal decision. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told US TV that peace prevails in Iran under full control, warning against repeating June’s mistake or facing the same consequences, as resolve cannot be bombed away.
