BlockBeats reported on July 15 that three people familiar with the matter said U.S. President Donald Trump held a meeting in the White House Situation Room on Tuesday local time to discuss a large-scale offensive against Iran. According to the report, the scope of the possible action would extend beyond the strikes currently taking place around the Strait of Hormuz. The sources said Trump appeared inclined to escalate the conflict and seek damage severe enough to pressure the Iranian regime into reopening the Strait of Hormuz and accepting his demands on the nuclear issue.
