White House Recalls: Operation in Iran Planned for 4 to 6 Weeks, Just Finishing the Third  - 1

The White House recalled that, according to Washington's estimates, the US military operation against Iran could last 4-6 weeks.

„The President and the Pentagon have estimated that it will take approximately 4-6 weeks to complete the tasks set. Tomorrow marks the end of the third week“, said White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt, quoted by Axios.

According to her, President Donald Trump's announcement of the possible imminent completion of the operation does not mean that it will happen soon.

However, as the portal notes, „some Trump advisers still lean towards the possibility of a ground operation“ on the territory of the Islamic Republic.
