Trump warns Gulf states to prepare for ‘possible short, intense renewal of Iran war’ after US midterms: Report
The United States has reportedly warned several Gulf Arab countries to prepare for a short, intense military campaign following the US midterm elections. According to The Wall Street Journal, US and Israeli forces are readying for a new round of heavy combat operations against Iran. This comes as Iran's nuclear program continues to elude international scrutiny, with the IAEA unable to access certain sites since 2025.
The US military is bolstering its missile defenses and restocking munitions, while bomber aircraft and fighter jets are preparing for potential strikes. Meanwhile, Iranian infrastructure and nuclear sites remain under threat, with President Trump considering a post-election attack to either degrade Iran's strength or force negotiations.
