US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Friday that US strikes on Iran will be the heaviest on Saturday night since the war began a week ago. The agencies AP and DPA reported about it, writes TASR.
- US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced the strongest US strikes against Iran.
- The night bombing operation is supposed to cause the greatest damage to Iranian missile facilities.
“Tonight will be our biggest bombing operation yet,” said Bessent in an interview with Fox Business. According to him, the US plans to cause “the greatest damage” to Iran’s missile launch facilities and factories where missiles are manufactured.
The United States and Israel launched attacks on Iran last Saturday, February 28. Their officials said during the week that they would intensify strikes against the Islamic Republic.
US President Donald Trump said on CNN on Monday that “the big wave is yet to come”. US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Thursday that firepower over Tehran would be “dramatically increased” through more aircraft deployed more frequently.
