Washington, July 30: Following a reported Iranian missile attack on US troops stationed in Jordan, President Donald Trump issued a stern warning, stating that Iran will face consequences. He emphasized that the United States would respond with full force.
According to Fox News, Trump declared, “We will defeat them badly.” He warned that Iran would receive a strong response, asserting that the US would take decisive action following the attack on its military personnel.
In an interview with Fox News, Trump stated, “We will give them a strong reply. They will pay a big price for this.” He noted that the US military successfully intercepted incoming ballistic missiles. However, Fox News did not provide details on the number of missiles launched, the timing of the attack, or whether there were any casualties.
Trump’s remarks suggest that the US may consider direct military action against Iran or Tehran-backed groups. However, he did not disclose any information regarding the timing, scale, or targets of a potential operation.
This warning comes at a time when Trump confirmed that US strikes on Iran-backed militia groups in Iraq were coordinated with the Iraqi government. He referred to these militia groups as “cancer for the world” and criticized armed organizations supported by Iran.
Trump’s comments indicate that the US views the threat posed by the alleged Iranian missile attack on American forces in Jordan and the active Tehran-backed militia groups in the region as interconnected. However, he did not clarify whether the US strikes in Iraq occurred before or after the missile attacks on American troops.
