Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi held a phone conversation with Iranian FM Seyed Abbas Araghchi.

China supports Iran in safeguarding its sovereignty, security, territorial integrity, and national dignity, and supports Iran in upholding its legitimate and lawful rights and interests.

China has urged the U.S. and Israel to immediately cease military operations, prevent further escalation of tensions, and stop the conflict from spreading and engulfing the entire MiddleEast.

If Iran does not exist, may my body not exist either.

We confirm that our forces used B-1 bombers to bomb targets inside Iran.

The IDF recently carried out a targeted attack on another senior terrorist in Beirut.

🚫The Iranian regime’s false messaging machine continues to falsely claim that it has sunk a U.S. aircraft carrier.

✅The TRUTH: The only carrier that has been hit is the Shahid Bagheri, an Iranian drone carrier. U.S. forces struck the ship within hours of launching Operation Epic Fury.

Today, the United States Military continues to carry out large-scale combat operations in Iran to eliminate the grave threats posed to America by this terrible terrorist regime.

Following our obliteration of Iran's nuclear program in Operation Midnight Hammer a short while ago, we warned Iran not to make any attempt to rebuild at a different location because they were unable to use the ones that we so powerfully blew up.

But they ignored those warnings and refused to cease their pursuit of nuclear weapons.

The regime’s conventional ballistic missile program was growing rapidly and dramatically. This posed a very clear and colossal threat to America and to our forces stationed overseas.

The regime already had missiles capable of reaching Europe and our bases, and it soon would have had missiles capable of reaching our beautiful America.

The purpose of this fast-growing missile program was to shield their nuclear weapons development and make it extraordinarily difficult for anyone to stop them from producing these highly forbidden nuclear weapons.

I'm very proud to have knocked out the Iran nuclear deal by President Barack Hussein Obama.

That was a horrible, horrible, dangerous document.

They would have had nuclear weapons three years ago and they would have used them. But I'll not let that happen.

For almost 47 years, this regime has been attacking the United States and killing Americans.

Every time you see someone with missing arms and legs or a face that's been absolutely shattered violently, it was almost certainly caused by an Iranian roadside bomb.

They were put there by General Soleimani, who was the father of the roadside bomb—very proudly, he thought—but I terminated him in my first term.

We are destroying Iran’s missile capabilities, and you see that happening on an hourly basis, along with their capacity to produce brand-new and pretty good ones.

Second, we’re annihilating their Navy. We’ve already knocked out 10 ships. They’re at the bottom of the sea.
