Reuters reports that Pentagon is working on ways to contain Iran.
"We are identifying new areas where we will work with allies to put pressure on the Iranian regime, neutralize its destabilizing influences, and constrain its aggressive power projection, particularly its support for terrorist groups and militants," he said. The Pentagon has long singled out Iran for activities in the region that it views as destabilizing, and on Friday listed eight such areas. Those included:
* Ballistic missile development and proliferation
* Threatening freedom of navigation, particularly in the Gulf
* Cyber-attacks against the United States, Israel, and America's allies and partners in the Gulf
* Unrelenting hostility to Israel
