US President Donald Trump has praised the US military operation in Iran, saying the US destroyed Iran's navy and air force within hours, the BBC reported, Gazeta Express reports.
“We won,” the president told his crowd of supporters. “It was over in the first hour.”
He said the US had "shot down" 54 Iranian ships in two days, then moments later said the number was 58.
It's a figure we haven't heard before, and the BBC has yet to independently verify it.
The president added that Operation Epic Fury will "significantly lower oil prices" and reduce the threat to the world.
"Our military has practically destroyed Iran," he said.
