After returning from a trip to China, President Donald Trump faces a decision on whether to resume strikes on Iran. According to multiple reports, senior aides have prepared draft “battle plans” for possible military action. The deliberations come as peace negotiations are described as having stalled, leaving policymakers to consider alternative approaches.

The articles characterize the current situation as a decision point for the White House: whether to continue seeking a diplomatic outcome or to move toward renewed military pressure. The reporting indicates that planning efforts are underway within the administration, suggesting that options have been developed in anticipation of a change in course.

While the sources focus on the internal preparations and the stalled negotiations, they do not agree on new operational details or announce any immediate action. Instead, they describe the matter as pending, with Trump weighing the next steps following his trip abroad.
