US President Donald Trump has been asked by reporters in the Oval Office what it would take for Iran to violate the ceasefire.

“You’ll find out, because I’ll let you know. They (Iran) know what to do … and they know what not to do,” he responds.

Trump adds that Iran’s navy has been reduced to “little boats” and that “they had eight of them and they’re all gone”.
