Trump: Iran Strike Would Take 10 Minutes
US President Donald Trump warned he could destroy remaining Iranian targets within 10 minutes, responding to a threat from Iran's supreme leader. Trump claimed Iran's nuclear systems were already largely dismantled. Trump made the remarks Saturday at his Florida residence after Mojtaba Khamenei issued a message from a secret location, listing the US and Israel as targets and vowing an "immediate" response to any attack. Trump suggested Iran watch "Pickaxe Mountain" but declined to reveal attack plans, asking reporters, "Would I announce an attack to you?" The warning comes ahead of Tuesday's US midterm elections, which will determine Republican control of Congress. Trump stated no attack would occur before the vote, though speculation suggests possible new military action afterward. Rising prices and war fatigue have fueled public discontent, making the election a key indicator of support for his Iran policy.
