Washington, Feb 17, 2026 – US President Donald Trump reportedly met with his senior advisors on Wednesday to discuss potential responses to the ongoing crisis with Iran, according to CNN and CBS News.

Sources familiar with the discussions indicate that the US military may be preparing for possible strikes against Iran in the coming days. However, Trump has not yet made a final decision regarding any military action.

CNN reported that during the meeting, Trump personally weighed both arguments for and against military intervention. He also solicited the views of his advisors and allied officials to better understand the potential risks and consequences of a strike.

The consultations underscore the delicate and high-stakes nature of US-Iran relations, as officials and observers watch closely for any signs of escalation in the region. While Trump has privately expressed support for decisive action, he appears to be taking a measured approach, balancing military readiness with diplomatic considerations.

No official announcements have been made, and it remains unclear whether a decision will be reached in the coming days.
