The US Pentagon is preparing weeks-long ground operations in Iran, which could involve up to ten thousand soldiers. According to information from American sources, these operations should include raids by specialized units and infantry, but not a full-scale invasion. A decision on specific military steps has not yet been made, but President Donald Trump continues a complex strategy combining diplomacy with military threats. Spiegel.de ↗

The war, which was originally supposed to last only a few days, has turned into a costly and unclear conflict without a clear goal. Most of the American public criticizes the situation after a month of fighting. Meanwhile, the Pentagon is strengthening its military presence in the Middle East, including the deployment of amphibious ships such as the USS Tripoli, which are meant to ensure the security of the Strait of Hormuz. idnes.cz ↗

Meanwhile, Trump is considering renaming the Strait of Hormuz. According to sources from his administration, he is considering names such as the American Strait or the Trump Strait following the possible opening of this key maritime route. At the same time, he criticizes NATO allies for their reluctant stance on sending their armed forces and has suggested that the US may not help its allies in the future if needed. Trump is also considering a new order within NATO, under which member states that do not allocate five percent of GDP to defense would lose the ability to invoke Article Five or the right to make decisions within the alliance. novinky.cz ↗

Mass protests referred to as No Kings are also taking place in the US, representing the third wave of demonstrations against the Trump administration in less than a year. According to organizers, approximately eight million people took part in Saturday's rallies in many American cities. Protesters are expressing anger at Trump's policies and what they perceive as authoritarian rule. hnonline.sk ↗
