Sources say Israel has been notified and is coordinating with the US, but Trump has not yet issued final approval. The report notes that the plan was proposed at Trumps cabinet meeting at Camp David on Friday, and some White House political aides strongly opposed it, fearing the operation could impact the US and global economy. Trump stated, "Were going to hit them very hard." The US has also discussed cutting off Tehrans power supply, but no decision has been made. Previously, Trump stated that for every attack on ships in the Strait of Hormuz, the US would bomb an Iranian bridge or power plant. If this operation is carried out, it would mean Israel has resumed military operations that were previously suspended due to a US-mediated ceasefire.August 1st - According to Irans Tasnim News Agency, the Houthi rebels in Yemen stated that, in order to implement their strategy of "blockade against blockade," eight Saudi oil tankers have been forced to change course and circle the Cape of Good Hope after maritime restrictions were imposed on them.
