US Admiral in the Middle East Presented Trump with Options for Strikes on Iran – Media
Admiral Brad Cooper, head of the United States Central Command (CENTCOM) in the Middle East, presented President Donald Trump with options for military action against Iran.
According to the report, the meeting took place at the White House. The discussions were also attended by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine. The parties discussed options for launching military operations.
According to the newspaper, Cooper's personal visit to Trump may indicate that the US is increasingly seriously considering launching a large-scale military operation against Iran.
Earlier, the WSJ reported that Washington had warned several Persian Gulf countries of the need to prepare for a "short-term and intense military campaign" against Iran. This refers to the period following the midterm elections to Congress.
In turn, two weeks ago, Iran issued a new warning, stating that if the US or Israel attacks Iran again, Tehran could strike infrastructure facilities associated with American interests in the region.
