INTEL: Top admiral briefs Trump on Iran attack options, WSJ reports

A top US admiral has briefed President Donald Trump on options for attacking Iran, the Wall Street Journal reported. The report describes a military briefing on possible strikes, not a decision to carry them out.

The excerpts of the WSJ story available so far give only that headline claim. They do not name the admiral, set out the specific options presented, or say whether Trump chose any of them. Neither the White House nor the Pentagon has been quoted confirming the briefing or its contents.

A briefing on attack options is a planning step. It does not show that an operation has been ordered or scheduled, and nothing in the report as relayed says one has.

This article will be updated if the full WSJ report or an official statement adds detail on the options discussed or on any decision.
