Washington, February 20 (Xinhua) — Hundreds of American troops have been evacuated from bases in Qatar and Bahrain amid growing concerns about a possible U.S. strike on Iran, The New York Times (NYT) reported on Friday, citing Pentagon officials.
Evacuations took place at the Al Udeid air base in Qatar and at a group of American bases in Bahrain, where the US Navy's Fifth Fleet is stationed, the NYT reports.
Earlier on Friday, US President Donald Trump said he was considering a limited military strike on Iran to force it to agree to the nuclear deal.
Also on Friday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said a draft of a possible nuclear deal between Tehran and Washington would be ready within the next two to three days, after which the parties "may need another round of talks before moving forward with work that would hopefully lead to a favorable outcome."
In an interview with MSNBC, A. Araghchi emphasized that Iran is ready for both war and peace.
Iran has 10-15 days to reach a nuclear deal, Trump said Thursday, or "something really bad will happen."
