NEW: Trump receives RARE HIGH-LEVEL military briefing on Iran options

U.S. and Israeli fighter jets are conducting drills in preparation for possible renewed strikes on Iran, Fox News reporter Stephanie Bennett says, as military planning and stalled diplomacy share the frame in a fast-starting report.

The Fox & Friends First segment has drawn nearly a million views in eighteen hours, far beyond the channel's usual opening for a Short. Its subject is a White House briefing on Iran options, which Bennett describes while citing reporting by The Wall Street Journal.

Admiral Brad Cooper, the top U.S. commander in the Middle East, briefed President Donald Trump. The segment reports on potential military action, not an announcement that renewed strikes have been ordered. Footage of aircraft launching and landing on a carrier accompanies Bennett's account of diplomatic outreach and communications to Tehran.

The report then turns to a Texas town hall, where Vice President JD Vance addresses concerns about prolonged foreign intervention. He promises that Trump will not let Iran become a "forever war."

Bennett closes with the unresolved nuclear negotiations and Tehran's demands concerning blockades and sanctions, leaving the military options alongside a diplomatic stalemate.
