The U.S. is reportedly planning a so-called "last strike" military option against Iran.
Several U.S. officials and insiders have revealed that the Department of Defense is developing a "last strike" military plan against Iran, which may include deploying ground forces and large-scale airstrikes. Analysts suggest that if diplomatic negotiations continue to stall, especially with the ongoing blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, the risk of escalation will increase further. Some U.S. officials believe that ending the conflict through forceful military action could help gain more leverage in subsequent negotiations. Reports indicate that internal discussions within the U.S. include options such as blockades or military actions against Iran’s major oil export hubs and key islands, as well as intercepting Iranian oil shipments in the Strait of Hormuz. Additionally, the U.S. military has prepared contingency plans to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities, including conducting ground operations deep inland or launching large-scale airstrikes.
