United States President Donald Trump said on Monday that over 7,000 Iranian targets were hit as the conflict between the two countries drags on.
Trump was briefing reporters on the latest on Iran ahead of a lunch meeting with board members of the Trump Kennedy Centre. He said the US military operations in Iran had continued “in full force” over the past few days, adding that the US had stuck more than 7,000 targets across Iran.
“They have been literally obliterated,” the US president said. “Since the beginning of the conflict, we’ve struck more than 7000 targets across Iran. And these have been mostly commercial and military targets. We’ve achieved a 90% reduction in their ballistic missile launches and a 95% reduction in drone attacks.”
