Trump claims conflict will be over soon but US hasn’t ‘won enough’ yet

Описание: Donald Trump has promised the war would be a “short-term excursion” that would finish “very soon”, before threatening Iran with “death, fire and fury” if it continues to disrupt maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.

Huge explosions rocked Tehran overnight as the US and Israel launched another round of strikes on Iran, after Donald Trump made conflicting claims over when the war would end.

Smoke billowed high over western Tehran in the early hours of Tuesday morning, shortly after Trump threatened Iran with “death, fire and fury” if it disrupts traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.

Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu echoed his threats, saying late on Monday that the military was “breaking their bones” but is “not done yet” with its blitz of Iran.
