The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly discussing the possibility of resuming large-scale military operations against Iran. One potential date for the start of a new operation is Monday, November 9th, coinciding with the new moon in the Middle East, which could provide favorable conditions for nighttime military action, according to Fox News, citing senior U.S. officials.

President Trump held meetings with his national security team on November 4th and 5th to discuss further actions regarding Iran. "Do we want to continue to strike to make sure that Iran's nuclear program is destroyed and that it never happens again?" Trump asked reporters at the White House on Thursday. He added, "I would prefer, if possible, not to destroy the rest of the country. But I may have to. You will be finding out soon."

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) is reportedly finalizing preparations for a potential resumption of military operations against Iran, though no order has yet been received from Washington. Meanwhile, diplomatic contacts between Washington and Tehran, mediated by Qatar, are ongoing. Iran has submitted new proposals to the U.S. concerning its nuclear program and the terms for future negotiations. The November 9th date is mentioned by sources as a possible timeframe for the operation's commencement, not a confirmed strike date, and no official decision to resume hostilities has been announced.
