Trump vows massive operation against Iran, vows to destroy missiles and navy
Trump pledges sweeping US action to curb Iran's nuclear push, including destruction of missile capabilities, as Israel strikes escalate tensions.
In a public statement that followed reports of rising military activity around Iran, the US President said the United States is embarking on a massive and ongoing operation and warned that Tehran cannot be allowed to build a nuclear weapon. He asserted Iran had attempted to rebuild its nuclear program and install long-range missiles capable of threatening the US and its partners.
He described the operation as massive and ongoing, promising sweeping action against Iran’s military infrastructure. He laid out a stark objective: to destroy Iran’s missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground, and to ensure Iran does not obtain a nuclear weapon.
The rhetoric grew sharper as he declared that the United States would also annihilate Iran’s navy, underscoring the perceived breadth of the threat and the need for decisive action to prevent further escalation.
The day’s developments also saw Israel conducting a pre-emptive strike against Iran, targeting missile launchers, nuclear infrastructure, and other suspected military facilities; explosions were reported in Tehran and other cities.
Israel formally renamed its campaign “THE LION’S ROAR,” signaling an intensified military posture aimed at removing threats to the State of Israel amid the broader confrontation over Tehran’s nuclear and ballistic programs. Diplomats continue to pursue avenues to slow or halt Iran’s nuclear ambitions, even as regional tensions surge.
The sequence of moves, including the US statement and the Israeli strike, marks a dangerous return to open confrontation in a volatile region, raising questions about the next steps and the potential for broader conflict.
