US President Donald Trump on Wednesday warned Iran of fresh military action, saying the United States would strike the Islamic Republic "very hard" later in the day, hours after declaring that the ceasefire had effectively ended following attacks on American military sites in the Gulf.
Speaking during a NATO Summit appearance in Ankara, Trump said Washington had already carried out heavy strikes against Iran and signalled that further action was imminent.
"We hit them very hard last night. Very, very hard. We'll probably hit them hard again tonight. I'll give them a little warning. We're going to hit them hard tonight," Trump said.
The remarks marked a further escalation in tensions between Washington and Tehran, with Trump also saying he was unhappy with Iran's actions.
Ceasefire declared over
Earlier in the day, Trump said the ceasefire between the United States and Iran was effectively over after attacks targeted American military installations in the Gulf.
Despite the renewed military rhetoric, Trump suggested that negotiations with Tehran could still continue, even as the conflict intensified.
His latest comments come amid heightened concerns over stability in the Middle East, with developments in the region continuing to weigh on global financial markets and energy prices.
