Trump: Will attack Iran

U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stark threat to attack Iran, citing the country's perceived delays in negotiating a peace agreement. Trump declared on his Truth Social platform that Iran would "pay the price" for its protracted negotiations.

In his social media post, Trump characterized the Iranian military as being in "total chaos" and claimed it had been "completely defeated." He further elaborated during a press conference at the White House, stating that the U.S. "will attack" Iran. Trump asserted that as the world's largest military power, the U.S. sometimes must utilize its strength.

According to Fox News, Trump also indicated to one of their reporters that U.S. targets would include Iranian power plants and bridges. The Iranian military, in response to Trump's threats, issued a statement asserting that they have "proven" their capability to retaliate against American threats and that they are not intimidated, as reported by Al Jazeera.

This development follows recent attacks against Iran. Separately, a fire broke out in the engine room of a tank vessel off the coast of Oman near the Strait of Hormuz, with the UK Maritime Trade Operations reporting the ship sent a distress call stating it was hit by a missile. The incident reportedly resulted in one death and two crew members missing. Additionally, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced his intention to run for re-election in the fall, a decision that comes after Trump commented on Netanyahu's future in an interview, reportedly demanding stronger action from the Prime Minister in the Middle East conflict.
