War Iran USA, Trump: "I will quickly end the war". LIVE

US President Donald Trump has promised to "very quickly end" the war on Iran.

“Now I just have to finish, which I will do very quickly, the war with Iran,” he promised, speaking in Ohio.

“They were badly defeated,” he added, referring to the Iranians.

JD Vance wrote to the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Rezaei, in an attempt to get the denials going again. This was reported by the Wall Street Journal, according to which the letter was sent at the direction of Donald Trump.

Also according to the WSJ, the US military is transferring a battery of Patriot missiles from Texas to strengthen its air defenses and is moving troops from bases that could be exposed to Iranian fire.

The White House, however, responded by saying that it will not comment on "sensitive military plans, the existence of which remains to be verified", underlining however that "President Trump keeps all options on the table to ensure that Iran can never acquire a nuclear weapon".
