President Trump claimed the U.S. was "very nearly under threat" from Iran to justify an ongoing military operation, contradicting U.S. intelligence assessments that Iran would not have had missiles capable of reaching the United States until 2035. Intelligence officials also told congressional staff that there was no indication Iran was preparing a preemptive strike against U.S. interests. Trump outlined military objectives including destroying Iran's missile capabilities, its navy, and preventing it from obtaining nuclear weapons, while notably stepping back from earlier rhetoric about regime change — a shift echoed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was reported killed in a joint U.S.-Israel attack, with Trump indicating that most identified potential successor candidates were also dead.
