Can do it in a more rapid fashion': Trump signals more strikes against Iran could be looming
Can do it in a more rapid fashion”: Trump signals more strikes against Iran could be looming as fighting continues with no U.S. strikes reported overnight. Iran said there were no U.S. attacks during the night, marking the first apparent break in hostilities in two weeks, but the conflict remained ongoing. The U.S. military announced Friday that it fired on another ship attempting to breach the blockade of Iranian ports. Speaking to reporters, President Donald Trump said there are options, including a military exit or diplomacy, and suggested major strikes could come. He also said the U.S. could continue “piece by piece” or act “in a more rapid fashion.” A source told the Associated Press Trump met with top national security aides about escalating attacks or changing course, though no decision was confirmed. Separately, Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis claimed missile and drone attacks on Saudi Arabia after Saudi strikes on Hodeida, and the conflict has pushed gas prices up to $4.11 per gallon, about 38% higher than at the war’s start.
