Donald Trump is considering a limited initial strike on Iran aimed at pressuring Tehran to accept his terms for a nuclear agreement, according to officials cited by The Wall Street Journal.

The proposed opening action — which could occur within days if approved — would focus on a small number of military or government targets. Sources say the intent would be coercive rather than a full-scale assault, leaving room for diplomacy while signaling readiness to escalate.

If Iran were to reject demands to halt uranium enrichment, the plan could expand into a broader campaign against regime-linked facilities, potentially with the objective of weakening or even toppling the Islamic Republic.
