The president broke his silence on the incident, which he attributed to Iranian missile attacks, calling it “extremely regrettable.”
Expressing deep sorrow over the loss, President Trump stated he would never permit Iran to obtain nuclear weapons. He further asserted that if Iran is not implementing the existing deal, the United States “is not worried either.” Meanwhile, U.S. Secretary of Defense Pat Hegseth remarked that the soldiers’ sacrifice has only strengthened America’s resolve.
