U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that Iran would face a strong response. He mentioned he might expand the targets and groups under consideration, though he did not give specifics. “Today Iran will be hit very hard! Due to Iran's bad actions, I am seriously thinking about complete destruction and certain death for areas and groups that were not previously included for targeting,” Trump stated in a message on Truth Social. He also pointed out that Iran had apologized to its neighbors for its attacks, which he interpreted as a sign of surrender.
