The United States has enough troops deployed in the region to carry out potential strikes. A new military operation will likely be larger in scope than before, the report said. Unnamed US officials said that the US troops in the Middle East are ready to launch new, potentially large-scale military operations against Iran "within 96 hours of receiving" an order from President Donald Trump. On Sunday, Trump said that he needed to decide whether to "finish it off" or strike a deal with Iran. On February 28, the United States and Israel began striking targets in Iran, prompting retaliation from the Islamic Republic. In mid-June, Iran and the US signed a memorandum aimed at a cessation of hostilities, but shortly afterward, they exchanged strikes again. At present, the conflict remains unresolved.
