CENTCOM chief briefs Trump on Iran military options as Vance reaches out to Tehran

The head of US Central Command briefed President Trump on military options against Iran in a meeting with Defense Secretary Hegseth and Gen. Caine, according to a report. Vice President Vance has reportedly contacted Iran to revive peace talks, though Trump said the contact concerned medical equipment. The report shows Washington weighing renewed force while a diplomatic channel remains uncertain, and the outcome would shape whether the Israel–Iran confrontation widens into a larger regional war.
