According to a CNN report citing US officials familiar with the matter, the US military is drafting a new strike plan that could include the use of the GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb, commonly known as the "Mother of all bombs," to target Iran's energy infrastructure and nuclear sites if President Donald Trump orders a new combat operation.
