In his new statement, the US President Donald Trump warned that more Iranian officials would be targeted in the ongoing war.
Writing in a social media post on Saturday, Trump said, “Today Iran will be hit very hard!”
Trump made the comments on his Truth Social website, after an apology came from Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian earlier in the day to neighbouring nations over Tehran's attacks.
“Under serious consideration for complete destruction and certain death, because of Iran's bad behaviour, are areas and groups of people that were not considered for targeting up until this moment in time,” Trump wrote, without elaborating.
Meanwhile, as per the latest updates, Lebanon's Health Ministry says Israeli airstrikes on the town of Nabi Chit, nearby, leave 41 dead and 40 wounded.
The US-Israel-Iran war has now entered its eighth day, intensifying the tensions in the Middle East region. With the air spaces being closed, several passengers are stranded in these nations. The countries are trying to bring back their citizens.
