Former U.S. President Donald Trump convened a meeting with senior members of his national security team on Monday evening to address developments concerning Iran. The discussion, as reported by two U.S. officials to Axios, included a detailed briefing on potential military options. This gathering seemingly indicates a serious consideration of resuming military actions.
