Donald Trump on Thursday declared that the United States is close to achieving its objectives in the ongoing conflict with Iran, claiming American forces have secured “overwhelming victories” in the war.
In his first national address since the start of the conflict, delivered from the Cross Hall of the White House, Trump stated that military operations under “Operation Epic Fury” have significantly weakened Iran’s offensive capabilities.

He asserted that Iran’s ability to launch missiles and drones has been “dramatically curtailed,” adding that key weapons factories and rocket launchers have been heavily targeted and destroyed over the past month.
Trump also issued a stern warning, threatening potential strikes on Iran’s electric power infrastructure if a deal is not reached. He emphasized that the United States’ military campaign is not aimed at acquiring Iran’s vast natural resources, including oil, but is instead focused on supporting its allies.
The remarks come amid escalating tensions in the region, as global attention remains fixed on the evolving conflict and its wider geopolitical implications.
