00:03State-run TV station IRIB reported that Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targeted
00:10a U.S. airbase at 4.50 a.m. on Thursday.
00:14Iranian forces said their response was a serious warning to make clear that aggression will
00:19not go unanswered, and if repeated, the response will be more decisive.
00:23The U.S. Central Command later said Iran launched a ballistic missile toward Kuwait that was
00:29successfully intercepted by Kuwaiti forces.
00:31They said this cease-fire violation occurred hours after Iranian forces launched five attack
00:37drones that posed a threat in and near the Strait of Hormuz.
00:41They said all drones were intercepted by U.S. forces, which also prevented a sixth drone
00:47launch from an Iranian ground control site in Bandar Abbas.
00:51The exchanges in recent days have shaken the fragile April cease-fire for the U.S. and
00:56Israel war against Iran over Tehran's nuclear weapon program.
01:00In Washington, U.S. President Donald Trump said his administration will not accept any
01:05deal with Iran that allows Iran or Oman to control the Strait of Hormuz.
01:11Nobody's going to control it.
01:12We're going to watch over it.
01:13We'll watch over it.
01:14But nobody's going to control it.
01:15That's part of the negotiation that we have.
01:18They would like to control it.
01:19Nobody's going to control it.
01:20It's international waters.
01:22And Oman will behave just like everybody else.
01:25So we'll have to blow them up.
01:26They understand that.
01:28They'll be fine.
01:28In addition to that, you have a lot of boats, you have about 1,400, 1,500 boats in the
01:32Strait
01:33wanting to get out.
01:34And at the right time, we'll release them.
01:36I'll tell you the primary urgency, and I said this, it wasn't covered properly, but the
01:40primary urgency is that we can't let Iran have a nuclear weapon.
01:45Trump also said the Gulf nations may need to join the Abraham Accords if a deal is signed
01:50with Iran.
01:58I'll tell you the now, sir.
