Trump Considers Ending Iran Military Action Despite Closed Strait, Report Says

According to a Wall Street Journal report published Monday, President Donald Trump has informed his advisors that he would consider concluding military operations against Iran even if the strategically important Strait of Hormuz waterway remains mostly blocked to shipping traffic.

The newspaper cited administration sources who said Trump would be willing to postpone the complicated mission of reopening the crucial shipping lane for a future time rather than continue the current military engagement.

Reuters has not been able to independently confirm the details of this report.
