Trump Says War with Iran Will End 'Soon' as US-Israeli Operation Continues
Kathmandu. US President Donald Trump stated on Wednesday that the war with Iran will end 'soon'.
Trump made the comment during a brief, nearly five-minute phone conversation with Axios, as the joint US-Israeli military operation, dubbed 'Operation Epic Fury,' entered its 12th day to destroy Iran's missile capabilities and navy, and to block any path to nuclear weapons.
"I want to end this at any time, it will end quickly," Trump said.
In a video posted on X, US Central Command leader Admiral Brad Cooper stated, "Since the US military launched the operation against Tehran on February 28, more than 5,500 targets in Iran have been attacked, including more than 60 ships."
During the interview, Trump stated the war was 'going well.'
He said, "We are far ahead of schedule. We have inflicted more damage in a shorter time than the original planned six-week period."
President Trump also stated that Iran is currently paying the price for 47 years of death and destruction.
"This is the payment. They will not get out that easily," he said.
