'Creative, unconventional ways': US Central Command asks military analysts for new ideas to punish Iran
US Central Command (CENTCOM) sent an email to military analysts requesting 'new creative and unconventional ways to punish Iran' last week.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) attacked a US military base in Kuwait with at least three drones.
The email was sent by a senior CENTCOM intelligence officer and was unusual, indicating limited options for pressuring Iran.
CENTCOM spokesperson Captain Timothy Hawkins said the military has a 'long way of thinking and working in innovative ways'.
President Donald Trump claimed talks with Iran were underway to end the war, but Tehran denied any such discussions.
