Senator voicing concern
Secretary of State
Mediaite and The Daily Beast foreground senators’ concerns about Trump’s Iran strategy, including the possibility of sending ground troops and a lack of a clear plan. France 24 and WDEF instead focus on reports of U.S. strikes against Iranian mine-laying vessels and Trump’s warnings about the Strait of Hormuz.
