President describes "Operation Epic Fury" as nearing completion and warns of further strikes
Summary
In a national address the President said U.S. forces have delivered decisive results in "Operation Epic Fury," claiming major degradation of Iran's military capabilities and warning of possible further strikes on infrastructure if no deal is reached.
The President provided an extended account of what he called "Operation Epic Fury," saying the U.S. military began the operation one month ago and describing it as necessary to protect the United States and allies. “In these past 4 weeks, our armed forces have delivered swift, decisive, overwhelming victories,” the President said, and he asserted that Iran’s navy and air force have been destroyed or severely degraded.
He repeatedly framed the operation as a preventative step to keep Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and listed several military objectives that he said are nearing completion. The President warned that if no deal is reached, the U.S. retains the option to strike additional targets, including electric generating plants and infrastructure, and set a near-term window for intensified action over the next two to three weeks.
