From BBC: Trump approved Iran attack plans, but no final decision made
US President Donald Trump on Tuesday night approved plans to attack Iran, but he has not made a final decision on whether to strike the country, the BBC's US partner CBS reports.

Trump held off on initiating strikes in case Iran agreed to abandon its nuclear program, a senior intelligence source told CBS.

The news was first reported by the Wall Street Journal.

On Wednesday, Trump said, "I may do it, I may not do it", when asked a question about US involvement in Iran.

Trump is weighing a US strike on Fordo, an underground uranium enrichment facility in Iran, CBS earlier reported.
