WASHINGTON: THE WAR HAS JUST BEGUN… WE CONTROL THE SKIES AND WILL DESTROY THE IRANIAN NAVY.
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and US Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Dan Keane confirmed at a press conference held today in Washington that the United States is continuing military operations against Iran, pointing to US control of the airspace in the southern regions of the Iranian coast and targeting of the Iranian navy, with the aim of preventing Iran from rebuilding its military capabilities.
The two officials indicated that the war with Iran had just begun, and that the strengthening of combat capabilities was continuing, noting a decrease in the number of Iranian missiles targeting the United States, while describing the Iranian attacks as random and inaccurate.
The most important points from the speech of the US Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, as translated by Network 964:
- From US Defense Secretary Hegseth:
The commander responsible for the attempt to assassinate Trump has been killed, and America is victorious in Iran.
The war with Iran has just begun, and we will increase our combat capabilities in the coming days. Iran cannot do anything about our control of its airspace. Only 4 days have passed and we still have time, and the results have been amazing, even historic.
- From Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff:
We are working to destroy the Iranian navy and ensure that Iran cannot rebuild its military capabilities. US Central Command maintains air superiority over the southern regions of the Iranian coast. Iran’s attacks are random and inaccurate.
We will now begin to expand inwards. The number of missiles launched by Iran has decreased as the war continues.
