JAKARTA - The Pentagon and the White House have drawn up joint plans and scenarios regarding a possible military attack on Iran, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday, citing sources familiar with the matter.
The scenario includes what it called a "grand plan", a scenario of a US attack on government institutions and facilities linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in a series of large-scale bombing campaigns, the newspaper reported.
"A more limited option is an attack on a symbolic government target, which is still seen as leaving room for escalation if Iran does not agree to a deal," he added.
At the same time, the US is still keeping its strategic goals secret and does not provide detailed information, the newspaper said.
Last week, US President Donald Trump said a "big armada" was heading to Iran, adding that he hoped Tehran would agree to negotiate and sign a "fair and equitable" deal involving a total cessation of nuclear weapons.
The US leader also recalled that in June 2025, the US launched an attack on Iranian nuclear facilities as part of Operation Midnight Hammer, saying that "the next attack will be even worse" and calling for efforts to prevent this from happening.
