Washington Post: Pentagon Prepares for Weeks of Ground Operations

According to the Washington Post, the Pentagon is preparing for weeks of ground operations in Iran, as thousands of American soldiers and marines are deployed to the Middle East. The decision, if ultimately made by Donald Trump, carries risks for American troops, due to their exposure to Iranian drones, missiles, and improvised explosive devices. These operations would not be a full-scale invasion, but could include raids by Special Operations forces and infantry. The Trump administration is sending mixed messages, with the president expressing a desire for negotiations but also threatening to escalate the conflict.
