Trump says Iran would be hit with ‘no hesitation’ if it threatens allies, US ships

Donald Trump said he would use military force against Iran “with no hesitation” if it threatened US ships or American allies. He made the comments in an interview, saying the US was doing well but that action could be taken if circumstances changed, or even immediately.

Trump also claimed the US had lost no soldiers in five months and had total control of the Gulf. The article says those claims conflict with reports and official figures showing that more than a dozen US service members have died as a result of the war on Iran.
