CNN: US military preparing to attack Iran this weekend

Shkruar nga Pamfleti

A number of calendar events could play a role in the timing of an attack. The Winter Olympics, traditionally a moment of global unity, end on Sunday; some European officials said they believed no attack would occur before then. Meanwhile, Ramadan began today, with some officials from U.S. allies in the Middle East who have lobbied against an attack, fearing regional destabilization.

The US military is prepared to strike Iran as early as this weekend, although President Donald Trump has not yet made a final decision on whether to authorize such action, CNN reports.

The United States is deploying a powerful naval and air force to the Middle East, which could mean it is preparing the ground for a large-scale attack on Iran.

The US president, who carried out airstrikes on Iran in June 2025, continues to threaten Tehran that he may launch military intervention if ongoing talks do not lead to an agreement on the Islamic Republic's nuclear energy program.

He withdrew the United States from the 2015 international agreement on Iran's nuclear program, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), in 2018 during his first term.

Washington continues to send dozens of warships and military aircraft to the Middle East. It now has tens of thousands of troops stationed at bases across the region, some of which could be vulnerable to Iranian retaliation.

A number of calendar events can play a role in the timing of an attack.

The Winter Olympics, traditionally a moment of global unity, end on Sunday; some European officials said they believed no attack would occur before then.

Meanwhile, Ramadan began on Wednesday, with some officials from US allies in the Middle East lobbying against an attack, fearing regional destabilization.

They said an attack during the Muslim holy month would show American disrespect.

Trump, in his statements on Iran in recent weeks, has done little to win support from the American public or Congress for a major military operation in the country. He has hinted at a desire for regime change and insisted that Iran not acquire nuclear weapons, but has not said what exactly his objectives would be in ordering an attack.
