00:01The U.S. military will be ready for a possible attack on Iran from Saturday, senior national security officials have
00:08told President Donald Trump according to multiple U.S. media reports.
00:12Trump has not made a final decision on military action and is discussing the matter with top advisers.
00:18The arrival of aircraft carrier USS Gerald Ford in the Eastern Mediterranean in the coming days will be a key
00:26factor in determining the timing of possible strikes, according to U.S. officials.
00:31Trump's advisor Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff met with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqshie for three hours in Geneva on
00:39Tuesday.
00:39Both sides said the talks made progress, but wide gaps remain.
00:43White House spokeswoman Karine Leavitt said on Wednesday there were many arguments one can make in favor of a strike
00:51against Iran, while stressing Trump prefers diplomacy.
00:54Following talks in Geneva, Iran's atomic energy chief said no country can deprive the Islamic Republic of its right to
01:01nuclear enrichment.
