Pentagon weighs potential final blow options against Iran

The Pentagon is assessing four major “final blow” scenarios against Iran, including invading or blockading Kharg Island, invading Larak, seizing Abu Musa (and nearby islands), or blocking oil exports through the Hormuz Strait, plus plans for possible deep-ground or air strikes to disrupt Iran’s nuclear program. Trump has not decided, but officials say he could escalate if diplomacy stalls. Meanwhile, U.S. reinforcements are arriving in the Middle East and mediators are pushing for talks, while Tehran remains skeptical of the US push.
