President Donald Trump said Monday evening that the United States will 'eliminate' the Iranian nuclear site Har Pikaks, adding 'Tell the Iranians to be ready,' according to a report. The site is part of Iran's nuclear program.
President Donald Trump escalated his rhetoric against Iran's nuclear program late Monday, stating that the United States will 'eliminate' the Iranian nuclear site Har Pikaks and telling Iranians to 'be ready,' a report said.
The statement, which cited 'Har Pikaks' as a site of Iran's nuclear program, follows a similar threat earlier in the evening in which Trump said the US would strike the Har HaMachosh nuclear site 'fairly soon,' as The Zioneer reported. The two sites may refer to the same location or distinct facilities; the report did not clarify.
The threat is the latest in a series of escalating statements from Trump over the past weeks, including vows to destroy Iranian infrastructure, seize Kharg Island, and strike multiple nuclear facilities. The US has conducted several rounds of airstrikes against Iranian targets, with power plants reportedly on the target list.
