Trump claimed that a US destroyer successfully transited the strait and threatened Iran to reach a swift agreement.
CoinFeed reported on May 8th that, according to Jinshi News, US President Trump posted that three US destroyers had just successfully transited the Strait of Hormuz, during which they were attacked. The three destroyers sustained no damage, but the Iranian attackers suffered significant losses. A large number of their small boats were completely destroyed. Missiles were fired at the US destroyers but were easily intercepted. Similarly, drones were also attacked but were completely incinerated in mid-air. A normal country would have allowed these destroyers to pass, but Iran is not a normal country. They are led by madmen, and if they had the opportunity to use nuclear weapons, they would not hesitate to do so—but they will never have that opportunity, and as we have crushed them again today, if they do not quickly sign an agreement, we will strike them in a more violent and brutal way in the future.
