Trump planning new military assault or tighter sanctions, say Iranian officials
The Guardian reports that senior Iranian officials believe Donald Trump is choosing between further military strikes and an ever-tightening economic stranglehold, with adviser Mehdi Mohammadi saying Washington is preparing a limited strike and that Iran would target US bases in Europe if fighting resumes. Trump's blockade strategy has Brent crude at $93 a barrel, and a Reuters Ipsos poll finds 71% of Americans want Congress to legislate an end to the war.
