US President Donald Trump has said US forces struck Iran’s three main nuclear sites, and warned Tehran it would face more devastating attacks if it does not agree to peace, Reuters reports.

“The strikes were a spectacular military success,” Trump said in a televised address. “Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated.”

In a speech that lasted just over three minutes, Trump said Iran’s future held “either peace or tragedy”, and there were many other targets that could be hit by the US military.

“If peace does not come quickly, we will go after those other targets with precision, speed and skill.”
