WSJ: Trump orders new wave of attacks on Iran lasting several days

The Wall Street Journal has claimed that US President Donald Trump has ordered the launch of a new wave of attacks against Iran that could last for several days.

According to the newspaper's report, which cites government sources, the Washington administration's goal is to force Tehran into a deal. The report also included the claim that the new attacks could begin this weekend.

The claim, which comes as military tensions between the US and Iran persist, follows Trump's recent statements. Trump had used harsh language regarding Iran during a press-accessible cabinet meeting held at the Camp David presidential residence in Maryland.

During the meeting, Trump said, "We will hit them very hard. At some point, they will say, 'we can't take it anymore'."

When asked whether the conflicts between the US and Iran would continue until Iran's capacity to retaliate is completely exhausted, Trump replied, "It will take a while. They will get weaker and weaker. Maybe they can get a little stronger now, but then they will get weaker again and their influence will fade away."

There has been no statement from the Tehran administration regarding the claim mentioned in the source text. The development has raised concerns that tensions in the region could escalate further.
