President Donald Trump announced Thursday that the U.S. will not attack Iran before the November 3 midterm elections, after oil prices jumped more than 5% amid reports of preparations for renewed U.S. military strikes.
Axios reported that the Pentagon had ordered U.S. Central Command to finalize preparations for potential major combat operations against Iran, with U.S. and Israeli sources saying strikes could take place before the midterms. The directive did not specify a date, and Trump had not made a final decision, according to the report.
