US still has ‘one or two targets’ in Iran — Trump

President Donald Trump claimed on Saturday that the United States had destroyed most of Iran's military, but still needs to eliminate "one or two targets" as Tehran threatened retaliation if attacked. Trump stated that negotiations with Iran to end the conflict, initiated by the US and Israel in February, were "going fine," but added that Iran's reliability is questionable.

He emphasized that the US is not eager to launch offensive actions as they have already heavily damaged Iran's military and nuclear program. Trump mentioned that specific sites, such as Pickaxe Mountain, could be neutralized in a short time. The Iranian government refuted allegations of nuclear activities at the suspected underground complex.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio clarified that President Trump had not yet decided on further strikes and the US remains open to diplomacy. On Saturday, the supreme leader of Iran cautioned the US and Israel against launching new offensives, warning that such action would trigger a broader conflict.
