The next few days in the Middle East conflict will be decisive, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told a briefing on Tuesday, saying there had been major desertions from the Iranian armed forces.
"We have more and more options, and they have less ... in only one month we set the terms, the upcoming days will be decisive," Hegseth said. "Iran knows that, and there's almost nothing they can militarily do about it."
