Trump Considering Resuming Limited Strikes on Iran – WSJ

Apr 12, 2026, 23:26 GMT+1

President Donald Trump is considering resuming limited military strikes on Iran following the collapse of US-Iran talks, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing officials and people familiar with the deliberations.

According to the report, the option under discussion would involve targeted strikes rather than a broader military campaign, aimed at increasing pressure on Tehran.

The deliberations come after marathon negotiations between Washington and Tehran ended without a deal, despite raising hopes that the talks could produce a framework to de-escalate the war.

The report said the White House is weighing military steps alongside other pressure measures, including a planned US naval blockade targeting maritime traffic linked to Iranian ports.
