Security analyst Yair Goldblatt posted on X Wednesday that President Donald Trump said Iran will pay a heavy price for the killing of soldiers. Goldblatt assessed that the statement indicates the official US response to the killing of soldiers has not yet been delivered.
The Zioneer first reported Trump's statement at 16:56 Jerusalem. Goldblatt has previously assessed that Trump's red line for Iran remains the killing of American soldiers, and that the situation is at the threshold of a major development. On Monday, Trump ordered military leaders that Iran will pay several times over for every US soldier killed.
The statement and analysis come amid heightened US-Iran tensions, though no specific incident of soldier killing has been officially confirmed by the US.
