President Donald Trump told reporters on Monday that the United States was attacking Iran’s capabilities related to the Strait of Hormuz, amid renewed military action between the two countries.
The U.S. military said on Monday it was launching fresh strikes against Iran but Trump told reporters at the Oval Office on Monday that he had not decided that a negotiated settlement could not be reached with Tehran.
Trump also said that it could be that there are Iranian drones in Cuba.
“If they do have that, and they might very well have that, we’ll take care of it,” he said.
“We’re not going to have a problem. We’re not going to allow that to happen so it could be that they are storing some. We’re looking into it now.
