Trump threatens new strikes on Iran nuclear sites after US attacks

republicain-lorrain.fr (French) —

US President Donald Trump said Saturday that the United States still needs to "take care of" one or two sites in Iran, following strikes that he claimed destroyed much of Iran's nuclear capabilities, while Tehran threatened retaliation for any further attacks. Trump specifically mentioned Mount Kolang, near the Natanz nuclear complex, saying the US could act within ten minutes. This comes as Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei warned of an "immediate, powerful, and geographically unlimited" response, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the moment a "unique historical opportunity" to eliminate Iran's threat. The conflict began February 28 with US-Israeli strikes on Iran, leading to a ceasefire in April and a June agreement that later collapsed over the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has threatened attacks on data centers and undersea cables, while Tehran residents express resignation, with one saying "we have been at war for 48 years."
