Trump claims Iran's Revolutionary Guard leaders are fleeing, unstable

US President Donald Trump asserts that leaders of Iran's Revolutionary Guard are fleeing the country and their leadership is unstable, as US pressure intensifies and conditions in Iran deteriorate. Trump made these remarks on Wednesday, noting that the situation in Iran is worsening due to the ongoing American blockade. In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated, "The United States has complete control over the Strait of Hormuz.

I believe we will maintain it. Everyone calls our naval blockade an iron wall, and Iran can do nothing about it." He further alleged that Iran "no longer has a navy or air force, their soldiers are not being paid, the Revolutionary Guard is fleeing, and its leadership is unstable." Trump also claimed that Iran has run out of money and is experiencing extreme inflation, with the country reduced to "fake news and 300% inflation."

He concluded by saying that Iran is merely "all talk and no action" and is no longer the dominant power in the Middle East.
