Trump tells Fox News he “may keep going” with strikes against Iran

President Trump said Wednesday that he’s close to ordering more strikes on Iran after the country’s attacks targeting American bases in Persian Gulf nations, according to Fox News’ Trey Yingst.

Mr. Trump said he “may keep going” with strikes, which he said would target power plants and bridges, because Iranian negotiators are “tapping the United States along,” according to Yingst

Hostilities between Iran and the U.S. reignited after Iranian forces brought down an American Apache helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz on Monday evening with an attack drone, according to U.S. officials.

President Trump ordered retaliatory strikes on Tuesday, and Iran responded early Wednesday by firing missiles at U.S. military installations across the Gulf, though there were no reports of any weapons impacting the sites.
