Washington, MINA – US President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the US and Israeli war against Iran will end “soon,” because strikes have left “practically nothing left to target” in the country, Anadolu Agency reports.
“Little this and that any time I want it to end, it will end,” the president said during a brief telephone interview with US outlet Axios.
Trump’s emphasis that the end of the war is his alone to decide came after he previously stated that any decision on the conclusion of the war would be made mutually with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Israeli and US officials told Axios that they are preparing for the war to last at least two more weeks.

Iran’s Navy and industrial base have been sharply curtailed, he said.[]
