The US Central Command (Centcom) has directed military analysts to come up with “new creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran” as Washington weighs alternative strategies to push Tehran back to the negotiating table, CNN reported.
According to sources familiar with the matter, a senior officer in Centcom’s intelligence division circulated an email last week to a wide group of military analysts seeking fresh ideas. The outreach reflects a broader reassessment of US military strategy as officials examine options beyond conventional airstrikes.
