President Donald Trump said Tuesday the United States was far from finished with Iran and warned the next US military target could be an underground nuclear complex known as Pickaxe Mountain.
Pickaxe Mountain is a deeply buried nuclear site near Natanz where Western intelligence suspects Iran is building an undeclared enrichment facility.
“We’ll be hitting that area pretty soon, and very heavily,” Trump said, adding that he would not normally announce targets but “there’s not a thing they can do about it.”
Trump estimated it would take Iran more than 20 years to rebuild from current damage, addressing reporters during a White House meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun.
“If we left right now, it would take Iran 20, 25 years to rebuild. Okay, and we’re not finished at all…we’re not leaving right now.”
Iran stepped up its strikes in the Middle East on Tuesday, two weeks after its war with the United States resumed, with Jordan, Kuwait and Bahrain coming under attack.
In another development, GISTSMATE MEDIA reported that the new UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham announced a tax cut to ease cost-of-living pressures as he was set to convene his first cabinet meeting on Tuesday.
After a day earlier replacing Keir Starmer in Downing Street and purging the government of his predecessor’s loyalists, the 56-year-old on Tuesday morning said he was cutting value-added tax on consumer electricity bills.
The new business minister Jonathan Reynolds told Sky News this was a “tremendous announcement for the first day of the new cabinet”, which was due to meet Tuesday afternoon.
The measure cuts the 5 percent tax from October and will trim about £45 ($61) a year off, and will be initially funded by cancelling a plan to introduce digital IDs. READ MORE
