President Trump said Thursday morning that the US struck Iran with overwhelming force overnight, with a 20:1 ratio of strikes. He added that Iran called shortly afterward, expressing a desire for a deal, but said he doubts they can be trusted to honor an agreement. The statement follows the overnight US strikes on Iranian targets.
President Trump's statement this morning confirms the scale of the overnight US strikes on Iran. He said the US struck with 'great force' and that the ratio of strikes was 20 to 1. The remark echoes his warning earlier today at 06:02 Jerusalem, as The Zioneer reported, in which he said every Iranian attack would be met with 20 times the force. Trump also noted that Iran called shortly after the strikes, expressing a desire to reach a deal, but he expressed skepticism about their reliability. The statement adds a new layer to the ongoing US-Iran confrontation, as the administration continues to signal both military pressure and openness to diplomacy.
