The president says the regime’s navy and air force are gone and vows to keep up U.S. pressure until victory.
U.S. forces are “riding free range” over Iran, whose military capabilities have been largely destroyed, President Donald Trump said on Wednesday.
“We have very good news on the war front, namely they are absolutely being destroyed. Iran is being absolutely decimated,” Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland after returning from domestic travel.
The Islamic regime “has no navy” and “no air force” and U.S. strikes have left the country with few remaining air-defense or control systems, the president said regarding the Israeli-American military operation that began on Feb. 28.
