US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that he will decide within two weeks whether to authorize a strike on Iranian nuclear facilities, signaling that Washington is still weighing military options amid rising tensions with Tehran.

According to Reuters, Trump pointed to ongoing concerns over Iran’s nuclear program but did not announce an immediate military move. The statement leaves open the possibility of escalation while also buying time for diplomacy, intelligence assessments, and allied consultations.

The prospect of a US strike has heightened fears of wider conflict in the region, where any attack on nuclear sites could carry serious risks for civilians, regional security, and energy markets. For many ordinary Iranians, the standoff adds more uncertainty to a country already battered by years of sanctions, repression, and economic strain.

No final decision has been announced, and the administration’s next steps will likely be watched closely by allies, adversaries, and global markets alike. For now, the White House is signaling that the choice between pressure and military action remains under review.
