‼️ President Trump said additional military action against Iran remains possible as Washington seeks to strengthen leverage ahead of future negotiations. In an interview with Fox News’ Mark Levin, Trump said the U.S. could continue strikes for another two weeks and described further attacks on Iranian targets as “very likely.”
❗️ Trump warned Iran against attempting to recover enriched uranium buried beneath destroyed facilities. He said the United States is closely monitoring the sites and would strike again if Iran tries to access the material. Trump also claimed roughly 70% of Iran’s targets had already been hit and said rebuilding Iran’s capabilities would take years even without further attacks.
🇮🇱 Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar defended the decision to act militarily against Iran’s nuclear program, comparing the situation to the failure to stop North Korea’s nuclear development in the 1990s. He said Israeli and American leadership concluded action was necessary after intelligence indicated Iran was preparing to move critical nuclear infrastructure into deeply buried facilities that would become effectively immune to airstrikes.
🛡️ Sa’ar warned that delaying action would have created a “de facto immunity” zone for Iran’s nuclear program and sharply reduced future military options. He said an Iranian nuclear capability would significantly increase the threat posed by Tehran and its regional proxy network, including Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis.
🌍 Sa’ar also said Washington attempted diplomacy before military action, including outreach by U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, but claimed Iran refused to engage on core American demands related to nuclear activity, ballistic missiles, and support for regional militant groups. He added that Israel has had no direct diplomatic engagement with Iran for roughly two decades and rejected claims that Israel seeks territorial expansion into Iran.
⚠️ Prime Minister Netanyahu said in an interview with 60 Minutes that despite major achievements against Iran, the campaign “is not over.” He said Iran still retains enriched uranium, nuclear infrastructure, ballistic missile capabilities, and proxy networks, although Israel and its allies have significantly degraded those systems.
🎯 Netanyahu said Iran’s highly enriched uranium must eventually be removed from the country and remaining enrichment sites dismantled. Asked how the uranium would be removed, he replied: “You go in and you take it out.”
🤝 Netanyahu said President Trump told him: “I want to go in there,” suggesting the material could potentially be removed under a future agreement. Netanyahu said implementation would be possible if inspectors or forces are allowed to enter and extract the uranium directly, but declined to discuss military options if diplomacy fails.
🚢 An Iranian official warned that Iran would “immediately strike” French and British warships if they approach the Strait of Hormuz, saying the vessels “are not welcome.”
🛰️ Iraqi security sources told regional media that no Israeli forces were detected in western Iraq during the war and said American forces were more likely involved. Officials said jamming and alarm devices were discovered in Wadi Shanan and reported that landing operations took place in the Najaf and Samawa desert areas without coordination.
⚔️ Another Iraqi security official told Al Hadath that a shepherd reported suspicious activity near Najaf in the Nukhayb desert on March 4. The official said Iraqi forces moved to investigate, but the U.S. warned them not to approach the area. According to the official, one Iraqi soldier was killed and two others were injured during subsequent clashes.
