After Tehran’s ‘finger on trigger’ salvo, Trump says ‘massive US fleet’ on way to Iran

The US is deploying an “armada” towards Iran, President Trump announced, as tensions escalate over Tehran’s crackdown on protesters and its nuclear program. While hoping the military show of force won’t be necessary, Trump issued renewed warnings. Iran, meanwhile, asserts its readiness to retaliate against any US aggression, with both sides disputing protest death tolls amid an ongoing internet blackout.
