Source: Officials: U.S. Military Prepared 'Short, Sharp' Iran Strike Plan

BlockBeats News, April 30th. According to CCTV News, U.S. President Trump has stated that the U.S. will continue to impose a naval blockade on Iran until Iran agrees to a deal that addresses U.S. concerns about Iran's nuclear program. Trump has rejected Iran's proposal of "lifting the blockade first, reopening the Strait of Hormuz for navigation, and then delaying nuclear negotiations," emphasizing that the blockade is currently the most effective pressure tactic.

He stated that compared to direct military strikes, the blockade is "more effective," and mentioned that Iran is under significant pressure as it is unable to export oil. Sources indicate that the U.S. military has prepared a "short-term and intense" strike plan, and if negotiations remain deadlocked, the U.S. may consider targeting Iran's key infrastructure to compel them to return to the negotiating table.
