White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is scheduled to hold a press briefing at 20:00 Jerusalem time tonight, US media report. The briefing will cover a series of new steps President Donald Trump has decided to take against Iran, according to the reports.
The Zioneer previously reported that the briefing was announced without a set agenda. The new detail emerges amid ongoing US-Iran tensions, with Trump having warned of potential further strikes and receiving intelligence briefings on Iran earlier this week. As The Zioneer reported on July 9, Trump received an intelligence briefing at 19:00 Jerusalem, and a White House source said the US was preparing for prolonged exchanges. On July 8, Trump indicated the US would 'probably' disable more Iranian ships.
The briefing tonight is expected to provide further clarity on the administration's next steps. The specific measures have not been disclosed.
