The U.S. is reportedly strengthening its military presence in the Middle East, with three missile-equipped destroyers and at least one submarine on station, according to a report from the "New York Times" citing American military officials.
The Pentagon has presented President Donald Trump with several strategic options targeting Iran, which include potential strikes on its nuclear facilities and missile sites, as well as a cyber attack aimed at disrupting Iran's internal security mechanisms.
Officials indicate that a cyber attack is the most probable course of action, as it poses less risk compared to direct military engagement while still achieving significant pressure on Tehran.
This report underscores the escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran, with the U.S. preparing for a range of responses that encompass both conventional military actions and cyber warfare.
