Trump warns ‘next week will be big’ as he considers US intervention in Iran
- The president is considering authorising American airstrikes against Iran's underground Fordow nuclear facility to support Israel's efforts to dismantle Iran's nuclear program.
- Such an operation would require specialised bunker-buster munitions delivered by B-2 stealth bombers, necessitating a complex, long-duration mission.
- The president has issued stern warnings to Iran, including a social media threat to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, demanding unconditional surrender and indicating dwindling US patience.
- Concurrently, the US is undertaking a significant military buildup in the region, deploying carrier groups and advising Americans in Israel to evacuate.
- Despite earlier statements of non-participation, the president is now reportedly weighing direct US military involvement, though a final decision remains pending.
