US President Donald Trump stated that the US is 'winning the War' against Iran, citing significant military successes and economic pressure from a blockade. He claimed Iran is losing $500 million daily due to the blockade, which he insists will remain until a diplomatic deal is reached. Trump asserted that Iran's naval and air capabilities have been severely degraded and suggested internal instability within the Iranian leadership. He criticized major US media outlets for misrepresenting the situation, alleging they are creating confusion both domestically and for adversaries. Trump's remarks reflect his administration's ongoing strategy towards Iran amid heightened tensions.
