US officials: Trump to decide within days whether to expand war with Iran

Odaily Planet Daily News According to Fox News, senior US officials say President Trump is expected to decide within the next few days whether to expand military operations against Iran and resume full-scale combat. These officials emphasize that no final decision has been made yet. Officials say if Trump orders a resumption of full-scale military operations, their scale and intensity would "far exceed" the US airstrikes that began on July 7 and lasted for nine nights; the previous airstrikes primarily targeted Iranian military assets related to operations around the Strait of Hormuz. One official also confirmed that the US military had previously largely avoided striking targets near Tehran or Iran's nuclear facilities. "That could change if full-scale war operations resume," the official said. (Jin Shi)
