President Donald Trump has told a US broadcaster that several members of Iran’s top leadership were killed in US-Israeli strikes that “incapacitated” the Islamic republic, and the identities of the country’s next leaders were becoming clear, AFP reports.

Asked by ABC News whether Washington believes people in Iran’s leadership were now dead, Trump said “a lot of it is,” adding he and the administration “have a very good idea” of who will fill the positions of power in Tehran.
