President Donald Trump announced that joint military operations between the United States and Israel have targeted Iranian military assets, claiming significant damage to the country's naval and air capabilities.

According to Trump's statement, the operations resulted in the destruction of 44 Iranian ships and what he described as "every plane" in Iran's military fleet. The president characterized these as joint strikes conducted in coordination with Israeli forces.

Trump called on Iranian leadership to surrender, using the phrase "cry uncle" in his remarks about the military campaign. The president framed the operations as having "shattered" Iran's military capabilities through the coordinated efforts of American and Israeli forces.

The announcement comes amid broader tensions in the Middle East and concerns about potential impacts on global energy markets. Trump referenced mounting gas price concerns domestically as context for the military actions.

Neither Iranian officials nor independent sources have confirmed the extent of damage claimed by Trump. The Iranian government has not immediately responded to the allegations about the scope of military losses described in the president's statement.
