US President Donald Trump is weighing the possibility of killing Iran’s leadership in hopes of achieving regime change, the The Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, citing US and foreign officials. The publication said the president has not made a final decision.
According to the report, Trump received several briefings on strike options, including a potentially weeks-long air campaign to “kill scores of Iranian political and military leaders,” with the end goal of toppling the government. Other options reportedly focus on nuclear and missile sites.
