U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that some American troops or personnel could be killed or injured in connection with an ongoing operation involving Iran. In a video shared on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump said his administration had taken all possible measures to reduce risks to U.S. personnel in the Middle East. However, he cautioned that the Iranian leadership was seeking to cause harm.

Trump stated that while the loss of brave American lives was possible, such sacrifices were part of the realities of war. He emphasized that the operation was being carried out not only for immediate security but also for a greater purpose in the future. The statement came amid heightened regional tensions following reports of Iranian missile and drone attacks toward Israel and other related developments in the Middle East.

The warning underscores the potential for further escalation in U.S.-Iran relations as military activities continue in the region.
