The United States may launch military strikes against Iran in the coming days, signaling a potential escalation in regional tensions.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that Republican Senator Ted Cruz shared this assessment during an interview with CNBC. According to the senator, there is a high probability that Washington will conduct limited military operations within a few days.
However, the senator emphasized that any form of ground operation involving US troops is strictly excluded. Ted Cruz noted that the Iranian government is currently weaker than ever before, stating that Washington's primary objective is to create an opportunity for the Iranian people to overthrow their own government.
This sentiment was echoed by former CIA officer Mark Fowler, who previously maintained that regime change in Iran must be executed by the country's own citizens. These statements come amid a period of heightened scrutiny regarding Iran's regional activities and nuclear program.
Under the administration of US President Donald Trump, Washington has maintained a policy of maximum pressure and strategic deterrence regarding Tehran. The geopolitical significance of such potential strikes remains a focal point for international observers, as the US continues to prioritize regional stability and the containment of threats while supporting internal democratic aspirations within Iran.
