U.S. President Donald Trump has strongly condemned the Iranian regime, labeling it "evil" and accusing it of murdering protesters and attempting to disrupt oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz. Trump suggested Iran's actions, including alleged staged attacks and mine reports, are aimed at provoking higher oil prices before the U.S. midterm elections. He stated that despite these provocations, oil transit through the Strait of Hormuz has increased. "They continue to kill protesters and everyone else in their path. This is a truly evil regime, and I can only hope that the American public and the whole world understand how evil they are. In less than seven months, 75,000 protesters have died. It is striking how little the world and the Democratic Party seem to care," Trump said. He reiterated that Iran must never possess nuclear weapons.
Separately, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denied reports that President Trump had prevented Israel from conducting a major operation against Iran. Netanyahu dismissed media claims that Israel had abandoned a strike on Iranian targets due to U.S. opposition as "unreliable."
Earlier reports indicated Trump's comments on the potential for a swift end to the war with Iran, though tensions remain high and the risk of renewed hostilities persists.
