US President Donald Trump is reviewing a range of options concerning the military crisis in the Middle East, including the possibility of launching a direct strike against Iran, according to The Wall Street Journal, citing officials within his administration.

 

These developments come as Trump convened a meeting of the National Security Council in the Situation Room following his emergency return to Washington from Canada earlier today.

 

Officials noted that the President aims to ensure Iran is unable to advance its nuclear capabilities, following increased pressure from Washington for Tehran to return to the negotiating table and pursue a diplomatic solution.

 

Meanwhile, US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce stated in a press briefing that President Trump is the sole decision-maker on how the United States will respond to Iran.
