Gulf on edge: US plan targets IRGC arsenal and Iranian energy sites
The Pentagon has drafted options for a roughly three-day air campaign against Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and energy facilities, the New York Times reported, as attacks on Gulf shipping continue and Trump says no strike will come before Nov. 3.
Attention has turned back to the Gulf after the New York Times reported that Pentagon planners prepared options for a concentrated campaign of about three days against Iran, targeting IRGC missile launchers, stockpiles and drone infrastructure, as well as energy facilities and IRGC headquarters.
Iran has attacked at least 13 ships in the Gulf since September, and Saudi Arabia reported damage at Jazan and Najran airports from overnight strikes that injured three people.
Trump: Blockade stays
Trump said the U.S. would not attack Iran before the midterm elections, citing productive talks, and said the blockade of Iranian ports would remain fully in force.
