On cam: Trump promises ‘great safety’ for oil tankers as Iran tightens grip on strait of Hormuz | US

U.S. President Donald Trump said he is not worried about potential Iran-backed attacks on American soil as the conflict with Iran intensifies. Speaking at the White House, Trump claimed Iran has lost most of its naval and air capabilities following ongoing U.S. military operations. He also urged oil companies to continue shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most critical energy routes, despite rising tensions. Trump asserted that U.S. forces have destroyed much of Iran’s naval fleet and warned military action could escalate further if needed, as the Iran-U.S. confrontation enters its second week.
