Trump Approves Iran attack Plans amid Rising Tensions
Updated June 19, 2025
President Donald Trump has signed off on plans for a possible attack on Iran, though a final decision has not been made, according to CBS. The U.S. president is reportedly hesitant to initiate strikes if Iran agrees to halt its nuclear program. A potential U.S. strike on Fordo, an underground uranium enrichment facility, is under consideration.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei,Iran’s Supreme Leader,dismissed trump’s demand for unconditional surrender Wednesday. Trump stated his patience was wearing thin, adding, “I may do it, I may not do it,” when questioned about U.S.involvement.
Khamenei, in a recorded speech, warned that any U.S. military intervention would be costly, asserting, “The Iranian nation will not surrender.” Trump brushed off the rejection, saying, “good luck,” while remaining tight-lipped about his plans. “I mean, nobody knows what I’m going to do,” Trump said, adding, ”Unconditional surrender – that means I’ve had it.”
Adding to the escalating tensions, Israel has launched multiple attacks on Iranian missile sites and nuclear facilities. iran claims it responded with hypersonic missiles, though no critically important damage was reported in Israel. Khamenei’s recent appearance was his first since Israel’s pre-emptive strikes began Friday.
Iran’s mission to the United Nations responded to Trump’s statements on X, stating, “iran does NOT negotiate under duress, shall NOT accept peace under duress, and certainly NOT with a has-been warmonger clinging to relevance.” The mission added, “No Iranian official has ever asked to grovel at the gates of the White House,” and criticized Trump’s threat to “take out” Iran’s supreme leader.
the verbal sparring coincides with reports of Iranians fleeing Tehran, seeking refuge from Israeli attacks. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated Wednesday that his forces are “progressing step by step” toward eliminating threats from Iran’s nuclear and missile capabilities.”We control the skies over Tehran,” Netanyahu said. “We are striking with tremendous force at the regime of the ayatollahs. We are hitting the nuclear sites,the missiles,the headquarters,the symbols of the regime.”
