United States official: Trump or approval to resume the strike on Iran

ACCORDING TO AXIOS, THREE UNITED STATES OFFICIALS HAVE REVEALED THAT TORAN HAS BEEN CONSIDERING A LIMITED STRIKE IN THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ TO PREVENT IRAN FROM REBUILDING ITS RADAR AND MISSILE CAPABILITIES TO ATTACK SHIPS. THE PLAN WAS EITHER APPROVED OR APPROVED AFTER A WEEKEND EXCHANGE OF FIRE. ACCORDING TO THE INFORMATION RECEIVED, THE PLAN WAS DEVELOPED BY THE UNITED STATES CENTRAL COMMAND OVER THE PAST WEEK AND SUPPORTED BY DEFENSE SECRETARY HÖGSÈS, BUT HAD NOT BEEN APPROVED BY TRUMP BEFORE THE EXCHANGE OF FIRE WITH IRAN THIS WEEKEND. HOWEVER, AFTER A NEW ROUND OF UPGRADES, HE MIGHT APPROVE THE PLAN. ACCORDING TO A UNITED STATES OFFICIAL, THE IDEA BEHIND THE PLAN WAS TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ATTACKS BY IRAN ON TANKERS, UNITED STATES NAVAL VESSELS AND AIR FORCE AIRCRAFT, WHICH, IN THE WORDS OF THE OFFICIAL, WOULD BE “CYCLICAL AND PREVENTIVE”. UNITED STATES OFFICIALS STATED THAT THE CENTRAL COMMAND WAS CONCERNED ABOUT IRAN ' S ATTEMPTS TO REBUILD ITS RADAR, ANTI-AIRCRAFT AND ANTI-SHIP MISSILE CAPABILITIES IN THE STRAIT TO BETTER TARGET VESSELS。
