Trump Threatens More Strikes on Iran, Vows to Hit 'Very Hard' Until They 'Can't Take It Anymore'
At a Camp David cabinet meeting, President Trump threatened further military strikes against Iran, stating the U.S. would hit them 'very hard' until they surrender. The threat came amid renewed drone attacks from Iran and a tanker strike near the Strait of Hormuz, as the U.S. presses for the strategic waterway's reopening. Reports indicated Trump was considering renewed heavy attacks, potentially targeting energy infrastructure, with coordination between the U.S. and Israel. The conflict, which began with U.S.-Israeli strikes on February 28, has continued for over five months with tit-for-tat attacks and no end in sight.
