# Trump Says US Strikes Significantly Degraded Iran's Military Capability

President Donald Trump stated that US attacks have substantially diminished Iran's military power, describing the country as having been set back to "the Stone Ages." Trump asserted that Iran's capacity has been "largely taken away" as a result of American military operations.

Trump cited specific examples to support his claims about the extent of damage inflicted. He referenced Iran's naval fleet, noting that the country previously operated 159 ships, implying a significant reduction in this capability following the US strikes.

The remarks represent Trump's continued characterization of the effectiveness of American military action against Iran, framing the attacks as having substantially weakened the nation's defensive and offensive capabilities.
