Donald Trump said the US may “wind down” its military action against Iran as key goals are nearing completion. His remarks follow rising tensions after a strike on the South Pars gas field. Israel hit the site earlier this week, and Iran responded by targeting a major LNG plant in Qatar linked to the same field. Trump said, “We are getting very close to meeting our objectives.” The White House said the mission may take four to six weeks. Officials added progress is steady. The fallout has pushed oil and gas prices higher and raised concerns over global supply. (PC: HT)
