US military told to be ready for possible Iran strikes
Original: iran war
President Trump has ordered the US military to be prepared for possible strikes on Iran as he weighs the timing of any action. Axios reports officials are positioning forces while the administration debates whether, and how hard, to hit. The news lands amid already heightened tensions over Iran's nuclear programme, and observers are watching for how Tehran responds to the signalling.
Why now: New reporting that the White House is actively weighing military action against Iran raises fears of a widening conflict.
