Washington, DC – US Central Command issued an urgent warning to civilians inside Iran, urging them to stay away from military sites and infrastructure associated with defense activities. This warning comes amid continued military escalation in the region. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump predicted that the war would soon end.
Central Command explained in a statement that the warning was issued as part of “safety measures and to minimize civilian casualties.” It also indicated that ongoing military operations are targeting specific military sites. The statement emphasized that the presence of civilians near these areas could endanger their lives.
The statement added that US forces continue to closely monitor developments on the ground, in coordination with allies in the region. It affirmed that the objective of the current military movements is “to neutralize threats and ensure the stability of navigation and security in the region.”
In the same context, US President Donald Trump said that the war raging in the Middle East may be nearing its end. He also indicated that diplomatic contacts and international pressure could contribute to de-escalation in the near future.
In press statements, Trump clarified that the United States “is not seeking a long war.” However, he affirmed that it will continue to take all necessary measures to protect its interests and its allies. He also emphasized that his country prefers political solutions if the appropriate conditions are met.
These statements come at a time of unprecedented tension in the region, following a series of tit-for-tat military strikes between Iran and Israel. Furthermore, there has been a noticeable increase in US military activity in several areas of the Middle East.
Observers believe that the US warning may reflect the possibility of new military operations against targets inside Iran. Conversely, Trump’s statements reflect an attempt to create a political climate conducive to a potential de-escalation or settlement that would reduce the risk of the conflict expanding.
