US Ready to Strike Iran Within 96 Hours, Reports Say

Multiple Korean outlets, including Dong-A Ilbo, Kyunghyang Shinmun, and Yonhap, report that the US military is prepared to launch a large-scale operation against Iran within 96 hours of President Trump's order, citing CNN's sourcing of two US officials. The Korea Times adds that a US envoy said a strike could happen as soon as this weekend, amid mounting threats from Washington and Israel. Korean media frame this as a potential return to full-scale war in the Middle East, with Dong-A Ilbo noting concerns that the region is again heading toward crisis. The reports do not include direct Korean public reactions, but the coverage emphasizes the gravity of the situation.
