Former U.S. President Donald Trump issued a stern warning to Iran on Sunday, threatening that it would face the “full force” of the American military if it launches any attack against the U.S.
He emphasized that Washington had “nothing to do with” the recent Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear and military sites.
The Iranian government has accused Israel of carrying out a series of attacks on its nuclear and military facilities since early Friday, resulting in multiple casualties, including high-ranking military officers and nuclear scientists.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to strike “anywhere under the rule of the Ayatollah,” while Iran retaliated with a barrage of missile strikes.
Although Trump claimed he was aware of Israel’s planned attack before it happened, he reiterated on Truth Social that the U.S. had “no involvement in Friday night’s attack on Iran.”
“If you attack America in any way, shape, or form, Iran will suffer the full might and fury of the U.S. military like never before in history,” Trump warned in his post.
He added, “We can easily broker a deal between Iran and Israel to end this conflict!!!”
On Friday, the former president urged Tehran to either return to negotiations or face “even worse attacks” from Israel.
The escalating tensions follow a series of retaliatory strikes between Israel and Iran, raising fears of a broader regional conflict.
