AI Summary
President Trump warned that a U.S. military assault on Iran's infrastructure "hasn't even started," escalating rhetoric after an American strike damaged Iran's largest bridge. The warning follows Iranian attacks across the region, signaling a dangerous escalation in the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict. Trump's statement suggests the White House is considering further military strikes against Iranian targets beyond what has already been conducted. The exchange reflects deepening tensions in the Middle East, with each side responding to the other's military actions. The threat of expanded strikes raises the risk of a broader regional conflict involving U.S. allies and Iranian-backed militias.
