Trump Says Iran War at Critical Juncture, Must Decide on Large-Scale Military Operation

Donald Trump, the former U.S. president, has said the war with Iran is approaching a major turning point, stating that it must decide whether to restart large-scale military operations.

According to Axios, reported on Thursday (local time), Trump mentioned in an interview that he is considering restarting large-scale military operations to end the conflict. He plans to meet with leaders of six Gulf countries, including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar, during next week's UN General Assembly to discuss the Iran issue. Axios noted that Trump intends to directly hear opinions from regional nations before making a final decision on future responses.

The U.S. previously held off on further attacks after Saudi Arabia and Qatar expressed concerns about potential Iranian retaliation last month. It is reported that Trump has not yet made a final decision on whether to resume large-scale military operations.
