ALBAWABA - Talks between Iran and the United States have failed to reach a breakthrough until this moment after Washington's refusal of Tehran's response to its proposal to end the war.
Many officials and experts now fear the resumption of war amid no final peace agreement between the two countries.
An American website said Trump's administration is looking into options for military escalation to break the deadlock, while recognizing the risk of exacerbating the economic turmoil due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
Axios said, citing U.S. officials, that the president will not order attacks on Tehran during his China trip, but he may announce his next move immediately afterwards.
The officials added that Trump could either announce the resumption of "Project Freedom" in the strait in which the American Navy helps escort ships out of the waterway, which is blocked by the IRGC.
Another option is to resume military attacks focusing on Iranian infrastructure, as Trump has repeatedly threatened.
Israeli officials told Axios that the country will be on high alert this weekend in case Trump decides to resume attacks on Tehran.
Any such operation would take place in coordination with the Israeli military, the officials added.
