US President Donald Trump is considering a potential military strike on Iran, according to multiple current and former administration officials.

The deliberations followed a high-level meeting in the White House Situation Room with his national security advisers, as tensions continue to escalate between Israel and Iran.

Officials told NBC News that Trump is reviewing several military options, including a direct strike on Iranian targets. The discussions come amid the fifth consecutive day of fighting in the region.

While the President has not yet confirmed any decision publicly, his administration is said to be closely monitoring developments and weighing its next move.
