Trump: U.S. to Strike Iran in Response to Attack on American Targets in Iraq

BlockBeats News, July 29th, President Trump of the United States stated that after the US military intercepted a ballistic missile attack launched by Iran against Jordan that evening, the US would deliver a strong response.

“We will hit them hard... We will strike them hard, they will suffer a severe blow.” Trump said the US military had only a few minutes to respond to this sudden attack and successfully intercepted all incoming missiles before they hit their targets. He mentioned that he watched a video of the interception operation, which showed US personnel providing real-time missile coordinates during the interception.

Trump also mentioned that the US military's strike on Iran-backed Iraqi Shiite militia groups in Saudi Arabia that night was coordinated with the Iraqi government. He referred to these militia groups as the “world's cancer” and stated that the US is considering giving further warnings to Iranian proxy forces.
