Trump Threatens Military Action Against Iran, Says Options Under Review

U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened further military action against Iran, warning that Tehran would face a severe defeat if tensions continue to escalate. Speaking to reporters, Trump said the United States is prepared to carry out extensive strikes against Iran if necessary.

The U.S. president said recent attacks targeting Iran-backed militias in Iraq were conducted in coordination with the Iraqi government. He added that Washington is reviewing a range of military options against what he described as Iranian proxy groups, accusing them of threatening regional stability and American interests.

Trump further claimed that Iran-backed militias are “a scourge on the world” and reiterated that the United States would proceed with military action while allowing Iran to continue diplomatic statements. His remarks come amid heightened tensions in the region following recent military exchanges involving U.S. forces and Iran-aligned groups.
