United States President Donald Trump issued a stark warning to Iran on Friday, urging its leaders to reach a deal before, in his words, “there is nothing left” of what he described as the “once great Iranian Empire.”
In a statement shared on his Truth Social platform, Trump said he had given Iran “chance after chance” to reach a diplomatic agreement but claimed Tehran continually failed to seize the opportunity. His comments came in the wake of renewed Israeli airstrikes targeting Iranian-linked assets.
> “I told them it would be much worse than anything they know, anticipated, or were told,” Trump stated, adding that the U.S. produces the most lethal military equipment in the world, and that Israel is well-armed and prepared to deploy it further.
Trump further claimed that several key Iranian hardliners have already been killed in recent actions, warning that future strikes could be even more devastating if hostilities continue.
The remarks follow a spike in Israel-Iran tensions, fueled by a series of military engagements across the region.
Trump’s tone signals a hardline U.S. stance amid growing fears of a wider Middle East conflict.
The message carries weight both diplomatically and militarily, hinting at U.S.-Israeli coordination behind recent operations.
As the crisis deepens, global observers are watching closely for signs of de-escalation or further escalation in a region already strained by proxy conflicts and political instability.
