White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt supplied a new timeline on the war in Iran during a press convention on Monday as the Trump administration continues flip-flopping on the length of the battle.

The press secretary spoke on Monday about the administration’s most-pressing points, including the continuing war. When requested how long the war is predicted to last, Leavitt said the president and Pentagon stand by its authentic timeline.

“The president, commander in chief, the Pentagon, has always stated four to six weeks estimated timeline for Operation Epic Fury,” Leavitt said. “We’re on day 30 today, so you do the math on how much longer the Pentagon needs to full achieve the objectives of Operation Epic Fury.”

She then listed the administration’s goals on the war: “destroy the Iranian navy, destroy their ballistic missiles, dismantle their missile and drone production and infrastructure, significantly weaken their proxies throughout the course of this operation, and then of course, preventing Iran from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon.”

Later, when requested about who is paying for the fee of the war, Leavitt said the president would have an interest in having Arab nations to bear the prices of the battle.

“I think it’s something the president would be quite interested in calling them to do,” Leavitt said. “I won’t get ahead of him on that, but certainly, it’s an idea that I know that he has and something that I think you’ll hear more from him on.”

Leavitt’s presser comes as the Pentagon prepares for weeks of ground operations in Iran, sending hundreds of American troopers and Marines to the Middle East. According to The Washington Post, such a mission may expose U.S. troops to different threats, including drones and missiles, improvised explosives, and ground fire.

Though the White House has flip-flopped between declaring the war to be winding down or escalating, last week, Leavitt said that if Iran doesn’t end its nuclear ambitions, the U.S. would “unleash hell” against them.

“It’s the job of the Pentagon to make preparations in order to give the Commander in Chief maximum optionality. It does not mean the President has made a decision,” Leavitt said in a assertion last week.

Likewise, on Monday, President Trump warned Iran that if it didn’t open the Strait of Hormuz, the exit level for ships in the Persian Gulf, his administration would obliterate “all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island.”

“The United States of America is in serious discussions with A NEW, AND MORE REASONABLE, REGIME to end our Military Operations in Iran,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Great progress has been made but, if for any reason a deal is not shortly reached, which it probably will be, and if the Hormuz Strait is not immediately ‘Open for Business,’ we will conclude our lovely ‘stay’ in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island (and possibly all desalinization plants!), which we have purposefully not yet ‘touched’” he added. “This will be in retribution for our many soldiers, and others, that Iran has butchered and killed over the old Regime’s 47 year ‘Reign of Terror’.”

As the blockade in the Strait of Hormuz continues, the S&P 500 fell 0.1% on Monday afternoon trading, coming off its worst week since the war with Iran started. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 136 factors, or 0.3%, and the Nasdaq composite was 0.5% decrease.
