President Donald Trump has been presented with potential military plans for Iran. This comes as widespread and deadly protests continue across the country.
A U.S. official confirmed the briefing to CBS News. The nature of the options or any decision by the President was not disclosed.
The anti-government protests in Iran were triggered by a sharp increase in fuel prices. Reports from inside Iran suggest a severe internet blackout and significant casualties.
The development raises the possibility of U.S. intervention. However, officials have not indicated that military action is imminent.
