US Treasury Secretary Scott Besent has stated that military operations near the Strait of Hormuz will continue until Iran’s military positions in the area are completely destroyed. Speaking to NBC News, Besent said the campaign aims to weaken Iran’s defense bases near the strategic waterway and will persist until those targets are eliminated. He claimed that the ongoing operations have already significantly damaged Iran’s military capabilities.
Besent criticized media coverage of the conflict, arguing that the American public is not being shown an accurate picture of what the United States is doing. He also rejected comments from Democratic Senator Chris Murphy, who had accused the Trump administration of losing control of the war and becoming detached from reality. Besent dismissed those remarks as false, asserting that Iran’s capabilities have been destroyed.
The statement comes amid heightened regional tensions, with reports of drone incidents in Saudi Arabia, strengthened defenses in Kuwait, and attacks in Lebanon, while the European Union seeks a diplomatic solution to the Hormuz issue.
