Answer

The US has bombed Iran many times recently as a temporary stop to fighting broke down. President Trump warned Iran that the US will use missiles if they try to attack him or his government. Now, leaders are trying to find a new plan (Plan C) to keep the peace.

The United States has bombed Iran over 170 times in two nights. A temporary agreement to stop fighting (a cease-fire) is falling apart. President Trump warned Iran about future attacks. He said missiles are ready if they try to kill him or attack more. Now, people are looking for a Plan C.

Why it matters

This means the conflict between the US and Iran could get much worse very quickly. A new plan is needed to stop the fighting from getting bigger.
