U.S. President Donald Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform:
“The Iranian navy lies at the bottom of the sea and has been completely destroyed — 158 ships. What we did not target was the small number of their vessels they call ‘fast attack craft,’ because we did not consider them a major threat. Warning: if any of these vessels approaches our blockade, it will be annihilated immediately, using the same extermination method we use against drug traffickers on boats at sea. It is fast and decisive. Note: 98.2% of the drugs entering the United States via the ocean or sea have been stopped! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President Donald Trump”.
