"US will destroy Iranian missile industry, 'annihilate' navy," says Donald Trump

United States President Donald Trump has said the joint US-Israeli attacks on Iran are aimed at “eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime”.

“Short time ago, US military began major combat operation in Iran. Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating threats from the Iranian regime,” he said on Saturday.

“We are going to destroy their missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground.”
“We are going to annihilate their navy. We are going to ensure that the region’s ‘terrorist’ proxies can no longer destabilise the region or the world.”
“We will ensure that Iran does not obtain a nuclear weapon. It is a very simple message.”
“They will never have a nuclear weapon. This regime will soon learn that no one should challenge the strength and might of the United States Armed Forces.”
