President Donald Trump and his national security team are considering options to resume large-scale U.S. military operations in Iran in the coming weeks. Officials have discussed several possible scenarios, including strikes before the November midterm elections, according to people familiar with the discussions. However, no final decision has been made.
U.S. Military Prepares New Iran Options
Trump’s national security team recently met at Camp David to discuss the Iran conflict and the situation involving Houthi forces in Yemen.
Following the meeting, the U.S. military prepared new operational options for Trump to review. The Pentagon has confirmed that its role includes developing military choices for the president.
The discussions mark a potential shift after weeks without known major U.S. strikes inside Iran. The United States and Iran have continued limited attacks, while Washington maintains a blockade involving Iranian ports near the Strait of Hormuz.
Possible Strikes Raise Election Concerns
A renewed U.S. campaign could significantly escalate the conflict. Officials have discussed potential targets involving Iranian energy, infrastructure and nuclear facilities.
The timing also carries political risks. The November 3 midterm elections are approaching, and another military campaign could push the Iran war back to the center of the U.S. political debate.
Higher military tensions could also affect global energy markets. Oil prices have already remained elevated because of concerns about supply disruptions and instability around the Strait of Hormuz.
For now, Trump has not approved a new military campaign. Officials continue to weigh their options as Washington faces both diplomatic and military pressure over Iran.
