Trump delivers address on US strikes on Iran

The US commander-in-chief comments on American attacks against Iranian nuclear sites

President Donald Trump has warned Tehran to “make peace” or face further attacks, just hours after the United States carried out “massive precision strikes” on Iran’s Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear sites.

In a televised address from the White House on Saturday night, the US prasident told the nation that “our objective was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity and a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world’s number one state sponsor of terror.”

“Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success,” he claimed. “Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated.”

The US president went on to warn Tehran against retaliation, calling it the "bully of the Middle East."

Iran...must now make peace. If they do not, future attacks will be far greater and a lot easier.
