Pentagon drafts 3-day strike options on Iran; Trump withholds approval

The Pentagon has prepared multiple options for a three-day military campaign against Iran, but President Trump has repeatedly vetoed these plans in recent months, according to Clarín. The development signals ongoing military contingency planning amid stalled diplomacy, though the president's reluctance suggests a gap between military readiness and political will. The uncertainty centers on whether Trump's vetoes reflect a firm policy stance or a temporary hesitation that could shift with geopolitical events.
