President Donald Trump delivered a forceful message to Iran’s leadership, declaring that the current round of US strikes represents only the opening phase of a broader military operation and signaling that more significant action is imminent.

In an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper, Trump said the campaign is progressing effectively and emphasized the strength of the American armed forces. “We’re knocking the crap out of them,” Trump said in an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper. “I think it’s going very well. It’s very powerful. We’ve got the greatest military in the world and we’re using it.”

The president made clear that, in his view, the most intense phase of the operation has yet to begin, suggesting that additional strikes are forthcoming. “We haven’t even started hitting them hard. The big wave hasn’t even happened. The big one is coming soon.”

Trump also indicated that the United States is taking further steps aimed at supporting the Iranian population in its struggle against what he described as an oppressive regime led by the Ayatollahs. At the same time, he cautioned civilians in Iran to remain indoors while hostilities continue.
