New York, January 13 (Xinhua) — The Pentagon is offering US President Donald Trump "a broader range of options for a strike" on Iran than previously reported, The New York Times reported on Monday.
According to a report citing a US official, possible targets include Iran's nuclear facilities, in addition to the US airstrikes against them in June, as well as ballistic missile sites. However, the official noted that smaller-scale options, including a cyberattack or a strike against Iran's internal security apparatus, are more likely.
White House press secretary Caroline Leavitt told reporters on Monday that "airstrikes will be one of many options the commander in chief is considering," but for Trump, diplomacy always remains the first option.
D. Trump threatened on Sunday that his administration is weighing "some very serious options" regarding Iran, including potential military action. –0–
