U.S. president Donald Trump described Israel's attacks on Iran on Friday as "perfect" and warned that "there will be more if Tehran does not agree to a atomic agreement.He spoke on the subject during a telephone conversation with ABC News' chief correspondent in Washington, D.C., Jonathan Karl.
Israeli defence Forces (IDF) conducted a series of raids for many targets across Iran earlier on Friday, hitting military and atomic facilities as well as downtown Tehran.Iran confirmed that the attacks killed Major General Hossein Salami, Commander of the muslim Revolutionary defender Corps, and Major General Mohammad Bagheri, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces.Media reports reported that 78 people were killed in the attacks, including respective another high-ranking military commanders and atomic scientists, and 329 were injured.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanjahu said that the operation, which took place 2 days before the planned U.S.-Iran atomic talks in Oman, was intended to prevent Iran from acquiring atomic weapons.“I think it was perfect” said Trump, commenting on the attack.
“We gave them a chance, and they didn’t take it.
They were hit hard, very hard.
They were hit about as hard as you could get hit.
There'll be more.
Much more.”Trump had earlier told Fox News that he knew about the planned attack.
When asked by Karl if the United States had participated in it, he replied: "I don't want to comment on that."Karl noted that Trump inactive seems determined to scope an agreement with Tehran, although forthcoming talks in Oman are likely to be delayed after the attacks.The White home did not comment on the conversation, but Trump made akin remarks in a post on fact Social later that day."Two months ago, I gave Iran a 60-day ultimatum to make a deal.
They should do it” “ Trump wrote.
“I told them what to do, but they just couldn’t do it.
Now they have, perhaps, a second chance!”The U.S. and Iran resumed atomic talks in April, but no breakthrough was reached.
Washington demands complete dismantling of Iran's atomic program.
Tehran, who insists that its enrichment operations are entirely peaceful and intended solely for civilian use, considers this request inadmissible.
