US President Donald Trump stated that the US military has identified 38 bridges in Iran that could be destroyed within an hour if hostilities resume, while expressing a preference to avoid such strikes. Trump said the US has selected potential targets in Iran, including power plants and bridges, and noted that rebuilding the bridges would take ten years. He emphasized his reluctance to destroy infrastructure. Trump added that new US strikes on Iran are "extremely unlikely" if progress is made in negotiations on Iran's nuclear program and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. He noted three US aircraft carriers are deployed in the region.
