I want to thank to our Gulf partners who fought alongside each and every one of us every day — the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, and Jordan — all of whom joined us to defend and protect our people and our assets, and who, if required, stand ready to do so again.

Since the beginning of major combat operations, the United States Joint Forces struck more than 13,000 targets — including more than 4,000 dynamic targets that emerged on the battlefield and were immediately addressed.

CENTCOM forces destroyed approximately 80 percent of Iran’s air defense systems, striking more than 1,500 air defense targets, more than 450 ballistic missile storage facilities, and 800 one-way attack drone storage facilities. All of these systems are gone.

We have devastated Iran’s command and control and logistical networks, destroying more than 2,000 command-and-control nodes and degrading their ability to target U.S. and friendly forces.

We assess that we’ve sunk more than 90 percent of their regular fleet, including all major surface combatants.

150 ships are at the bottom of the ocean, along with half of the IRGC Navy’s small attack boats.

Joint fires projected from the land, sea, and air executed more than 700 strikes against naval mine targets, and we assess that we destroyed more than 95 percent of their naval mines.

And perhaps most importantly, we’ve destroyed Iran’s defense industrial base.

We attacked, along with our partners, approximately 90 percent of their weapons factories. Every factory that produced Shahed one-way attack drones was struck. Every factory that produces the guidance systems that go into those drones was struck.

Their missile defense industrial base was shattered, with more than 80% of their missile facilities gone, as well as their solid rocket motor production capability.

It will take years for Iran to rebuild any major surface combatants, as more than 20 naval production and fabrication facilities have been damaged or destroyed.

Nearly 80% of Iran’s nuclear industrial base was hit, further degrading their attempts to attain a nuclear weapon.

The Joint Force flew more than 10,000 missions, including 62 bomber missions — 18 of which flew round-trip from the United States to deliver bombs on military targets.

Each of these missions was more than 30 hours in duration, and we did that 18 times. No other military in the world can do that.

Along with our Gulf partners, we have thus far intercepted 1,700 ballistic missiles and one-way attack drones, defending our forces, our partners, and the civilian population — and we remain ready to do so should the need arise.

Along the way, we consumed more than 6 million meals and, by my estimate, more than 950,000 gallons of coffee, 2 million energy drinks, and a lot of nicotine — but I am not saying that we have a problem.

We’ll be hanging around. We’re not going anywhere.

We’re going to make sure Iran complies with this ceasefire and ultimately comes to the table and makes a deal.

Iran will be letting ships go through. That will be happening. They will be sailing.

Ultimately, we've done an incredible job militarily inside the Strait of Hormuz.

We know exactly what they have, and they know that, and they will either give it to us, which the president has laid out.

They'll give it to us voluntarily or we'll get it. We'll take it. We'll take it out.

Or if we have to do something else ourselves, like we did in Midnight Hammer or something like that, we reserve that opportunity.

The new Iranian regime knows they'll never have a nuclear weapon or the capability to get a path to one.

Iran would be wise to find a way to get the carrier pigeon to their troops out in remote locations to know not to shoot any longer — one-way attacks or missiles.

It takes time sometimes for ceasefires to take hold.

We had some military targets on Kharg, which was a signal. They can’t defend it, and so the Iranians ultimately understood their position — their future.

Their ability to produce and generate power to fuel their regime was in our hands. It was in President Trump’s hands. That’s why they came to the table.

He ultimately made clear: we can take it all from you. Your ability to export energy can be taken away, and the United States military has the ability to strike those targets with impunity.

That type of threat is what brought them to the point where they effectively said, “Okay. We want to cut this deal.”

The more Iran moves forces and the more they reposition, the more easily targetable they are for us right now.

Remember, we’re able to look. We’re able to see. We’re able to sense. We know where they are.

So if they try to pre-position, they’re just creating more ripe military targets for us to strike.

Nothing we’ve done, not a single thing we’ve done, has put an American troop in more harm’s way.

The UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait — all of whom have fought shoulder to shoulder with us, especially in defense of our facilities and our people, as well as their own facilities.

We appreciate that, and that coordination will, of course, continue.

I would love to see the Iranian people take advantage of this opportunity.

They have been oppressed by the previous regime, and they may now have a new opportunity with this regime. That remains to be seen.

That was not our objective in this effort.

We will continue striking the Hezbollah terror organization and will utilize every operational opportunity.

We will not compromise the security of the residents of northern Israel.
