特朗普权衡扩大对伊朗军事行动

Odaily Planet Daily News As tensions with Iran continue to escalate, the United States is increasing its military aircraft deployments in the Middle East. According to a U.S. official, the U.S. plans to deploy additional F-16 and F-35 fighter jets from European bases and dispatch more aerial refueling aircraft. The new military forces will provide U.S. President Donald Trump with more options as he weighs how to respond to this escalating conflict.

Last week, Trump was briefed on plans for an escalated war in the Situation Room. He has considered whether to attempt to seize Iran's key oil export hub, Kharg Island, or bomb Iran's nuclear facilities located on Mount "Gohar." However, Trump has not yet completely ruled out the possibility of resolving the issue through diplomatic channels. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated overnight that the door to returning to the negotiating table remains open. (CNN)
