The Pentagon is preparing for possible ground operations in Iran, including raids near the Strait of Hormuz and plans linked to Kharg Island, the Washington Post reported. Officials said the operations may involve special forces and infantry but will not be a full invasion. One official said the timeline could take “weeks, not months”. A former defence official said, “This is not last-minute planning.” Another warned holding territory would be difficult. It remains unclear if Donald Trump will approve the plans. (PC: X)
