U.S. officials said President Donald Trump has ordered a new round of attacks on Iran to force Tehran to surrender, according to a report by China Central Television citing its correspondent on July 31 local time. The actions could begin as early as this weekend and continue for several days, the officials said. Earlier on July 31, Trump said he planned to resume large-scale military strikes against Iran to pressure the Iranian government to return to the negotiating table. Trump also said that if the United States applied sufficiently strong military pressure, Iran’s hard-line regime would eventually “be unable to hold on.”
