President Donald Trump has stated that the US destroyed Iran's entire radar array, and that a new radar Iran set up was also destroyed in a strike last night. The remarks, reported at 00:56 Jerusalem, follow his statement four minutes earlier in which he said the US had completely defeated Iran militarily and left it with only a few missiles. Trump's latest claim specifically addresses Iran's radar capabilities, asserting that Iran has no radars left. The Zioneer has reported on previous US strikes on Iranian radar sites, including a June 10 strike that Trump said destroyed about 55% of Iran's rebuilt air defenses. The current claims are based on a single source and have not been independently verified.
