US Military Readiness for Iran Strikes; Embassy Staff Reduced Amid Threat

Multiple US officials claim US forces in the Middle East are prepared for large-scale military operations against Iran within 96 hours of a presidential order, though no order has been issued and President Trump remains undecided. Concurrently, the US has heightened its alert status and reduced embassy personnel in the Middle East due to intelligence indicating an imminent Iranian threat to Americans abroad. The specific nature and target of the alleged Iranian threat remain undisclosed, and the scope and trigger for potential US military action are unclear.
