The US government is working on scenarios for new military moves against Iran, according to reports from Axios and CBS News. <\/p>\n
These developments come at a time of heightened tension between Washington and Tehran, despite diplomatic contacts continuing behind the scenes. <\/p>\n
The mood became even more tense after Donald Trump decided to change his schedule and remain in the White House<\/strong> over the weekend. <\/p>\n According to CBS News, operational plans are being considered for new bombing<\/strong> of Iran even in the next few hours. <\/p>\n At the same time, Axios revealed that the US president had a morning meeting yesterday with close associates and security advisers on developments surrounding the war with the Islamic Republic<\/strong>. <\/p>\n Trump:<\/p>\n We have stopped Iran. They are never going to have a nuclear weapon. pic.twitter.com\/bjZmXhxpbc <\/p>\n – Clash Report (@clashreport) May 22, 2026 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n Despite scenarios, by late Friday night (5\/22) no final decision had been made on a new military operation, according to the same reports. <\/p>\n Donald Trump<\/strong> again appeared aggressive toward Tehran, insisting that the US has blocked Iran’s nuclear ambitions. <\/p>\n In a speech in Saffern, New York, he said: “We stopped them. They will never get nuclear weapons.” Shortly afterwards he added: “We will soon be done with this. It will be over soon.” <\/p>\n The US president cancelled planned travel and decided not to attend his son’s wedding either. <\/p>\n Meanwhile, a visit to a privately owned golf club was also cancelled, with him saying he was staying in Washington due to “government business”. <\/p>\n Note that The White House<\/strong> did not make an official comment following reports of a possible new attack. <\/p>\n As military mobility increases, efforts to de-escalate continue. <\/p>\n The army chief of Pakistan<\/strong>, a country that acts as a mediator between the US and Iran, arrived in Tehran for contacts with the Iranian leadership. <\/p>\n His presence is considered particularly important as Pakistan maintains open channels of communication with both sides. <\/p>\n Since the ceasefire of 8 April, Trump<\/strong> has several times sent different messages about whether there will be new military action. <\/p>\n He has repeatedly threatened new operations against Iran, but to date has not launched a new attack. <\/p>\n However, the latest reports of possible bombings are again raising concerns about a new escalation in the Middle East<\/strong>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \n The US government is working on scenarios for new military moves against Iran, according to reports from Axios and CBS News….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7022,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7021","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7021","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7021"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7021\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7022"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7021"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7021"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7021"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}} Preparations for new military strikes<\/strong> <\/h3>\n
