New Delhi: Donald Trump has claimed that the U.S. military campaign against Iran is proceeding with full force. According to him, attacks have been carried out against more than 7,000 military targets within Iran so far.
Claims Regarding Iran’s Military Strength
Trump stated that these attacks have inflicted heavy damage upon Iran’s Air Force and Navy. He claimed that over 100 vessels—including several warships—have been sunk, while anti-aircraft systems and radar installations have also been destroyed.
According to Trump, the U.S. launched an attack on Kharg Island, destroying nearly all military targets located there; however, oil pipelines and oil infrastructure were deliberately left un-targeted.
The U.S. President stated that nations such as China and Japan should also cooperate in addressing the global energy crisis to help maintain stability within the region.
Trump further claimed that Iran now possesses very limited resources for retaliation and will be unable to sustain this conflict for much longer.
