Trump Affirms US Support for Iran Conflict, Warns of Retaliation Amid Rising Tensions
US President Donald Trump asserted that Americans support the ongoing military campaign against Iran, attributing public concerns mainly to rising fuel prices rather than opposition to the war. He warned Iran would "pay a big price," threatening to target Iranian infrastructure in response to attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump attended a dignified transfer ceremony for four US service members killed in related conflicts and described the situation as a "skirmish," expressing hope for future negotiations despite escalating tensions.
