Trump pledges more Iran attacks, saying U.S. will be ‘attacking them very hard’

Trump said the United States will keep striking Iran if negotiators do not finalize a deal that blocks any nuclear weapon.

  • On Wednesday, President Donald Trump confirmed the United States would continue striking Iran, following about 20 overnight attacks on radar and air defense systems near the Strait of Hormuz after an Army Apache was downed Monday night.
  • Trump blamed Tehran for the collapse of peace talks, accusing Iran of 'tapping the US along' on a deal he called 'fully negotiated' before the two-month-old ceasefire began disintegrating in recent weeks.
  • Iran retaliated by launching missiles toward bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan, while U.S. Central Command described the U.S. strikes as 'a proportional response to unjustified Iranian aggression' against the Islamic Republic.
  • During an Oval Office event Wednesday, the president declined to rule out hitting civilian infrastructure, renewing threats to bomb power plants and bridges despite warnings such actions could constitute a war crime.
  • In four minutes on Wednesday morning, Trump promised to bomb Iran while wishing for 'Peace for the world,' even as the Islamic Republic remains capable of maintaining its blockade in the Strait of Hormuz.
