According to CNN, the US military asked troops for “creative and unconventional” ways to “pressure and punish” Iran.
“We are looking for new creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran,” an officer in US Central Command’s intelligence branch wrote in a message sent Wednesday to a broad group of military analysts, according to a source familiar with the message, the publication said.
“A second source also said that a senior US military officer sent the message last week soliciting new ideas for how to deal with Iran,” it added.
