[US Officials Say Military Prepared for Strike Against Iran Within Weeks] Two US officials revealed that the US military is preparing for a possible attack on Iran ordered by President Trump, with contingency plans potentially lasting for weeks. This could escalate into an unprecedented and serious conflict between the two countries. The plans are reportedly more complex than previous ones. One official stated that in a sustained military operation, the US military might target not only Iran's nuclear infrastructure but also state institutions and security facilities, but declined to provide specific details. The official said the US fully anticipates Iranian retaliation, creating a cycle of strikes and retaliation over time. This military preparation poses a greater risk to ongoing US-Iran diplomatic efforts.
