US Plans for Operations Against Iran in 'Advanced Stage'

US plans for potential military operations against Iran are in an 'advanced stage', according to an American official who spoke to Al Jazeera. US forces in the Middle East are prepared for any eventuality, including defending American interests. These statements come after a meeting between the Iranian Foreign Minister and the US Special Envoy for the Middle East, where the protests in Iran were reportedly discussed. Donald Trump has stated he does not rule out the use of military force, and recently revealed that Tehran has requested negotiations for a new nuclear deal. The US may respond with strict conditions, such as ending violence against protesters and delivering enriched uranium.
