Trump administration officials have expressed in private that they are concerned that the ceasefire between the United States and Iran has given Tehran a chance to recover from previous attacks, CNN reported on Tuesday. CNN senior reporter Zachary Cohen said that as President Donald Trump responded to a downed Apache helicopter that was patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz and vowed to retaliate, behind-the-scenes sources said this issue had been raised.CNN anchor Brianna Keilar asked Cohen about a recent report that Iran had started to build drones again and "re-upped its drone production during the ceasefire." She questioned if Trump administration officials were reflecting on whether "the ceasefire being dragged out now, weeks and weeks, is giving Iran these capabilities."Cohen confirmed that was the case — but not something that Trump has acknowledged in public."That's something that we hear from sources and U.S. officials in private, for sure," Cohen said. "But we have not heard the president in particular, or Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, voice a similar concern, really painting a more optimistic and a more confident view of the damage that the U.S. military has inflicted on the Iranians' capabilities," Cohen added. "But as you mentioned, we reported that the Iranians have been using this time the ceasefire to reconstitute many of their military capabilities. And it's already restarted production on some of these attack drones that, as we're seeing today, are capable of taking down an Apache helicopter, also a threat to U.S. Navy ships and commercial ships alike."

A GOP lawmaker on Tuesday had a different opinion than President Donald Trump when it comes to next steps in the Iran war.Fox News asked Rep. Carlos Gimenez (R-FL) during a live broadcast if Trump was helping Iran by ordering Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop attacking Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. The ongoing military conflict has now reached the 100-day mark with no end in sight, as talks between the United States and Iran continue."I hate to depart from my president, but actually I agree with it," Gimenez said."I'm starting to feel like we're Charlie Brown and Iran is Lucy, and every time we go to kick the ball it's taken away," he said. "'We're close to a deal, we're 2 days from a deal, we're 3 days from a deal,' and it's not happening. If I were in Vegas right now, I'd be betting that in 2 days we'll be right where we are today," Gimenez added. "I think that bad behavior deserves punishment, and unfortunately the Iranians are exhibiting bad behavior and they're not suffering any consequences for that. As you can tell, I'm a little more hawkish than the president would be."GOP Rep. Carlos Gimenez: "I'm starting to feel like we're Charlie Brown and Iran is Lucy, and every time we go to kick the ball it's taken away.
