The US military drafted a plan to deploy ground troops into Iran with the objective of seizing highly enriched uranium, enough for approximately ten nuclear weapons. President Donald Trump ultimately rejected the operation, according to CNN reporting. Military advisors cautioned Trump that such a move risked triggering a severe retaliatory response from Tehran. Concerns were also raised about the potential for escalating the conflict and destabilizing the global economy. The plan reportedly involved a forceful seizure of the uranium itself. Details of the proposed operation remain limited, but the report highlights internal debate within the Trump administration regarding Iran policy. The decision to forgo military action reflects a consideration of the broader geopolitical consequences.
