One option involves sending forces to seize or destroy nuclear materials at the Isfahan facility. - At the same time, the US military acknowledges that Iran has already regained access to most of its missile bases and underground facilities.

Iran has also said it is preparing for a possible resumption of war. Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf warned that the IRGC is "prepared for all scenarios" and promised a "surprise" in the event of a new attack.

The New York Times citing sources, published on May 15 that the United States and Israel are actively preparing for a possible resumption of military operations against Iran.

The newspaper noted that the Islamic Republic could come under new attacks as early as next week.

The options being considered by Trump reportedly include a shift to more aggressive bombing campaign of Iran and a special forces ground operation to extract enriched uranium from Iranian nuclear facilities. - Citing sources, the Pentagon said it is considering naming the potential renewed campaign against Iran 'Operation Sledgehammer' if the ceasefire in place collapses, replacing 'Operation Epic Fury' launched on February 28.
