'Could involve hundreds or thousands of troops': Inside Donald Trump's high-stakes plan to seize Iran's uranium stockpile

The U.S. military was reportedly asked to develop an unconventional wartime contingency plan Donald Trump This involves a high-risk operation to seize Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium. The move could mark one of the most ambitious and unprecedented military missions in modern history, the Washington Post reported, citing two people familiar with the matter.The proposal involves obtaining nearly 1,000 pounds of radioactive material from Iran. One report said the plan was not a conventional strike but would require a large-scale, ground-intensive operation deep in enemy territory. Military planners outlined a complex logistical sequence. The U.S. military needs to enter Iran, transport excavation equipment, and build a temporary runway capable of taking off and landing heavy cargo planes. The aircraft will then be used to extract uranium from the site. The operation could involve hundreds or even thousands of troops and last for weeks, greatly increasing the exposure of Iran’s defenses.The report comes as Trump said in his recent speech on Iran that the war would end soon and reiterated that the United States would continue operations over the next two to three weeks.U.S. officials recently presented Iran with a 15-point framework aimed at ending the conflict, which reportedly included a requirement for Tehran to hand over its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, which Donald Trump has labeled “nuclear fallout.”Iran rejected the offer, although in talks shortly before the war began it had indicated a willingness to reduce its uranium enrichment levels rather than abandon it entirely.U.S. officials recently presented Iran with a 15-point framework aimed at ending the conflict, which reportedly included a requirement for Tehran to hand over its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, which Donald Trump has labeled “nuclear fallout.”Iran rejected the offer, although in talks shortly before the war began it had indicated a willingness to reduce its uranium enrichment levels rather than abandon it entirely.
