Trump Weighs Strikes on Iranian Energy Infrastructure, Orders Fresh Attack Per WSJ Reporting

At a Camp David cabinet meeting, President Donald Trump threatened to hit Iran 'very hard' and suggested Tehran would eventually say it 'can't take it anymore.' U.S. media reported he was weighing renewed heavy strikes within days, including against energy infrastructure targets such as oil refineries and power plants, more than five months into a war that began February 28 when the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran. The Wall Street Journal reported Trump had ordered a fresh attack aimed at forcing Tehran to surrender in ceasefire talks; CBS News reported U.S.-Israeli coordination on the strikes. Some White House aides voiced objections, and final orders had not yet been given.
