U.S. STRIKES IRAN

Trump says 'major combat operations' underway against Iran

SUMMARY

President Trump announced that the U.S. has initiated "major combat operations" against Iran, aiming to dismantle its military and nuclear capabilities. In a video on Truth Social, he accused Iran of ignoring diplomatic opportunities regarding its nuclear ambitions.

Unlike previous strikes, this operation is expected to last several days and has begun in daylight.

Iran has launched an unprecedented response, striking U.S. military bases across the Middle East. Trump emphasized the threat posed by Iran’s missile program and called on the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to surrender. He stated, "For 47 years the Iranian regime has chanted 'death to America'." The extent of the ongoing conflict is still unfolding.
