WASHINGTON, March 10. /TASS/. Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth told reporters that Tuesday’s strikes will feature the most intense attack as part of the US-Israeli operation against Iran.
In his words, the United States was not planning to expand its military activities in Iran in case a need arises to convoy tankers and other vessels via the Strait of Hormuz.
TASS has gathered Hegseth’s main remarks.
"Today will be yet again our most intense day of strikes inside Iran - the most fighters, the most bombers, the most strikes. Intelligence is more refined and better than ever," the US secretary of war said.
The United States has no plans to broaden its operation in Iran. "The world needs to understand that <…> this isn't intended to be, nor is it something that will expand. We know exactly what we’re attempting to achieve here, scoped properly, and the American people can count on that for sure," he said.
