Iran war could go longer than four weeks: Trump

The US leader has justified the joint American-Israeli strikes on Iran, saying the country’s nuclear programme was a growing threat to the United States.
“This was our last best chance to strike and eliminate the intolerable threats posed by this sick and sinister regime,” US President Donald Trump told the media in the East Room of the White House.
He said the “objectives are clear”, with the first goal to destroy Iran’s missile capabilities.
“Second, we’re annihilating their navy; we’ve already knocked out 10 ships. They’re at the bottom of the sea. Third, we’re ensuring that the world’s number one sponsor of terror can never obtain a nuclear weapon,” said Trump.
