Trump Considers Targeted Strike Against Iran, Followed by Larger Attack
Trump weighs targeted strike on Iran followed by broader action as negotiations continue in Geneva amid two carrier groups near Iran. Officials discuss a new proposal offering an off-ramp to de-escalate tensions, while military forces reposition in the region.
Diplomatic talks in Geneva are shaping a potential last-ditch framework, with negotiators debating terms that could avert escalation if Tehran agrees to concessions. The situation on the ground remains tense, with the U.S. and allies signaling readiness for options if talks fail.
Analysts warn that a limited strike could quickly expand into a larger conflict, as both sides brace for possible retaliation and additional escalation in the region. The administration emphasizes the urgency of a negotiated path, but maintains readiness for military measures if necessary.
