Tensions between the United States and Iran have escalated sharply after an alleged attack on a US military base in Jordan that reportedly killed two American soldiers and left another missing. According to the report, President Donald Trump has authorised the US Central Command (CENTCOM) to prepare a full-scale military response against Iran and its alleged proxy network. Citing Pentagon sources, the report says Trump instructed military commanders to deliver a decisive response, using the phrase “open the gates of hell” for Iran. It further claims that US naval and air forces have intensified operational preparations across the Middle East, indicating that retaliatory strikes could be imminent. The report also references previous alleged US attacks on Iranian nuclear and military facilities, including Natanz and Fordow, as examples of earlier escalations. These claims have not been independently verified. If confirmed, the latest developments would mark a significant escalation in the US–Iran confrontation, raising concerns over a wider regional conflict and international security.
