US Strikes Iran as Hostilities Flare Again; Trump Warns of ‘Much Harder’ Action if Tehran Retaliates
Trump said the strikes were retaliation for alleged attacks on shipping and U.S. forces and warned Iran of a much harder response.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced that American forces are striking Iranian targets near the Strait of Hormuz, marking the second attack in two days.
- Trump called the US strikes "very justified" in retaliation for the Iranians' "failed" attempt at placing sea mines in the Strait and their firing of eight missiles at a military base in Jordan.
- The President termed the ongoing strikes "large and powerful," targeting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, while the Navy's assistance has kept the Strait of Hormuz secure with an average of 30 ships passing nightly.
- If Iran retaliates, Trump stated the nation will be hit again at a "much harder and higher level," adding that an even larger attack is "waiting in the wings."
- Trump reiterated Washington's stance that Iran will never acquire nuclear weapons, claiming that if they did, Israel and West Asia would be "wiped out," while describing Iran as a "failed nation" with 350 per cent inflation.
