US President Donald Trump addressed reporters in the Oval Office and again referred to Iran’s attack on a ship in the Strait of Hormuz. He said he did not like that Iran had fired, adding that four shots were intercepted and three hit the vessel.
Trump stressed that the ship was not allied with the United States, but described it as a very expensive vessel that was damaged in the incident. He said the ship was still operational, though it had taken some damage.
“They should not do that,” Trump said, warning that “you’ll find out when I respond. You’ll have to find out.” His comments suggested an unspecified US reaction to the attack.
