U.S. President Donald Trump declared that American forces are “in a very strong position” in the ongoing conflict with Iran, rating the war effort 15 out of 10.
Speaking at the White House, he praised U.S. military operations and coalition partners, including Israel, for successfully targeting Iranian leadership and missile capabilities.
Trump defended the strikes as necessary to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, while promising the campaign would continue.
The conflict has triggered global concern, with rising oil prices and debates over the legality and long-term strategy of the war.
Trump’s remarks came as the war entered its sixth day, with fresh explosions reported across the Middle East and US forces continuing coordinated operations alongside Israel.
