Donald Trump has signed off the plans to attack Iran, although he has not yet made up his mind whether to attack Iran or not, the BBC partner CBS reports.
According to CBS report, the US president had waited to strike in the event that Iran would accept to drop its nuclear programme. Trump is reportedly considering a US strike on Fordo, an underground uranium enrichment facility in Iran.
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, rejected Trump’s call for full surrender on Wednesday, as the US president expressed his impatience.
When asked about US involvement in Iran on Wednesday, Trump answered, “I may do it, I may not do it”.
