Washington — President Trump addressed the nation from the White House Saturday night about the U.S. military strikes on Iran.
Mr. Trump announced earlier on social media that the U.S. had launched strikes against three Iranian nuclear sites.
In his remarks, the president described the strikes as a “spectacular military success.” He threatened “far greater” attacks if Iran does not “make peace.”
“There will be either peace or there will be tragedy for Iran far greater than we have witnessed over the last eight days,” Mr. Trump said. “Remember, there are many targets left.”
Mr. Trump said the Fordo underground nuclear facility is one of the sites where the U.S. dropped bombs.
In a post on Truth Social announcing the strikes, he wrote: “This is an HISTORIC MOMENT FOR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ISRAEL, AND THE WORLD. IRAN MUST NOW AGREE TO END THIS WAR. THANK YOU!
In a separate post, the president posted a screenshot of a post on X from “Open Source Intel” that says: “Fordow is gone.”
This is a developing story and will be updated.
