In conjunction with the changes in the administrative structure of the Pentagon, foreign reports have reaffirmed that the current US President Donald Trump may order a US military strike in the coming weeks, or he may refer the task to his strategic allies, especially Israel.
The reports, quoting intelligence sources, indicated that there are several indications paving the way for a specific military strike on Iran before Trump leaves the White House, including the dismissal of US Defense Secretary Mark Esper and other officials, and their replacement with officials believed to be not an obstacle to any military strike against Iran or its proxies.
Foreign reports stressed that there is great coordination taking place on Iran, and that coordination includes high-level talks between officials in the Trump administration with their counterparts in the region, noting that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's tour in the region falls within the framework of military consultations and coordination against Iran.
