US President Donald Trump says he is considering a “massive attack” on Iran because Tehran has not “received enough pain yet” and that he is near a decision to resume major military operations. 
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says that “mindless aggression” will only see Trump pay a “heavier price” for a deal to end the war. 
Iranian media report that explosions, missile strikes, and air defense activity have been recorded across several cities, including Khondab, Khorramabad, Konarak, Jask, and Tehran. 
The UK says its armed forces stand ready to defend the country from any potential attacks, following a warning from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) over US bombers using UK bases.
