President Donald Trump said Sunday morning that U.S. aircraft had struck Iranian missile, drone storage, and coastal radar sites, citing violations of the ceasefire. He warned that if the U.S. is forced to complete its mission, 'the Islamic Republic of Iran will not continue to exist.' This marks at least the third wave of U.S. strikes overnight, as The Zioneer reported since 01:18.
President Donald Trump announced early Sunday that U.S. aircraft struck Iranian missile storage sites, drone depots, and coastal radar installations, accusing Tehran of violating the ceasefire 'again.' In the same statement, Trump warned that if Iranian violations persist, the moment may arrive when the U.S. 'must finish the job by military means,' adding the stark threat that 'the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer exist.'
This is the third reported wave of U.S. strikes on Iran this morning alone. As The Zioneer reported at 01:18 Jerusalem, Trump confirmed a second wave of strikes after Iran fired toward Kuwait and Bahrain. At 06:53 and 07:36, the desk reported an earlier overnight wave with the same warning. U.S. aircraft continue to operate over Iranian sites, though the full extent of damage has not been independently confirmed.
The strikes come amid a sustained campaign of nightly U.S. operations against Iranian military infrastructure, following what Washington describes as repeated Iranian ceasefire breaches in the Gulf. Iran has not yet officially responded to this latest wave.
