[Trump Convenes Meeting to Discuss Large-Scale Attack Plan Against Iran] Axios, citing three sources, reported on the 14th that US President Trump convened a meeting in the White House Situation Room to discuss a large-scale attack plan against Iran, stating that it would be "more extensive than the current strikes around the Strait of Hormuz." The report stated that the meeting discussed strikes against Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz, with the core issue being "a new plan to deliver a devastating blow to Iranian strategic targets." "Trump seems willing to escalate the war to cause enough damage to force Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz and accept Trump's demands on the nuclear issue," the report said. Attendees included Vice President Vance, Secretary of State Rubio, Secretary of Defense Hergsays, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Kaine, CIA Director Ratcliffe, and US Presidential Envoy Witkov, among others.
