Washington: The United States is reportedly planning a new round of military strikes against Iran later this week, with Iranian energy infrastructure, missile facilities, and other strategic military targets among the potential objectives, according to foreign media citing US officials.
The report states that the US Central Command (CENTCOM) has prepared multiple military options for expanding operations against Iran, including an intensive bombing campaign that could last up to two weeks. Sources said Iran's nuclear facilities remain on the list of potential targets, while Pickaxe Mountain, located south of Tehran, is also being considered.
According to the report, US military preparations for possible strikes on Iran have accelerated significantly in recent days. However, there has been no indication so far that Israel would participate in the planned operation.
Meanwhile, reports suggest that US President Donald Trump has already authorized fresh military action against Iran. In response, Tehran has warned that any US attack would have serious consequences and that Washington would bear the repercussions.
