Trump to Address Progress of Iran Operation

Donald Trump is expected to deliver an address regarding the progress of the operation against Iran. According to a White House official, the operation is "meeting or exceeding all of its goals."

Donald Trump will likely reiterate that the war will last another two to three weeks. The operation's goals include destroying Iran's ballistic missiles and production facilities, eliminating the Iranian Navy, ensuring that terrorist groups acting on behalf of Iran can no longer destabilize the region, and guaranteeing that Iran will never be able to acquire a nuclear weapon.

Trump stated that his sole goal is to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the goals include destroying the Iranian Air Force.
