Military leaders are putting together military options for President Donald Trump possible actions against Cuba. <\/p>\n

While Trump has rebooted his war in Iran, he’s also looking at what’s next and they’re trying to keep it quiet, CBS News reported on Wednesday. <\/p>\n

“Military planners have in recent weeks examined a range of options for possible action against the island, including an Army-led air assault involving thousands of U.S. soldiers to be carried out by the 101st Airborne Division, the only unit trained for such a task, according to multiple U.S. officials with knowledge of the discussions,” the report said. <\/p>\n

Officials who spoke to CBS News did so anonymously and stressed that there’s no final decision by Trump on whether he’ll carry out the operation. <\/p>\n

The report noted that such an operation would “confront the Pentagon with a significant problem because much of the U.S. military’s attention and some of its most valuable offensive capabilities are already committed elsewhere.” <\/p>\n

In June, the U.S. military met to conduct a “concept-of-operations briefing,” which dealt with the early-stage military planning that could involve a Cuba attack, the officials said. <\/p>\n

CBS News said that such briefings are “routine” because the military wants to give the president a large range of options and “contingencies.”<\/p>\n
