The United States is reportedly considering a major military campaign targeting Iran’s energy infrastructure, with media reports suggesting that strikes could take place over the weekend as tensions between Washington and Tehran continue to rise. According to CBS News, US officials have discussed concluding any military operation before global financial markets reopen on Monday to reduce potential economic disruption, although no final timeline has been approved.
The report said Israel has been kept informed and remains in close coordination with Washington. However, an Israeli official stated that no decision had been communicated regarding the resumption of large-scale military action and that Israel had not been asked to participate in any possible strikes.
Speaking during a Cabinet meeting at Camp David, President Donald Trump warned that the United States would respond forcefully, while White House officials reiterated that Iran would not be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon. Pentagon officials also confirmed that American forces were fully prepared but declined to discuss operational details.
Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal reported that military options were discussed at Camp David, although diplomacy remains possible if negotiations show immediate progress. Iranian officials warned that any attack would trigger a comprehensive response, including retaliation against Israeli and US interests and regional energy infrastructure.
