Donald Trump confirms US strikes on Iran

Donald Trump has confirmed that the US has launched "major combat operations" against Iran in an eight-minute video on Truth Social.

He said Tehran's "menacing activities directly endanger the United States, our troops, our bases overseas, and our allies throughout the world".

"For 47 years," Trump adds, "the Iranian regime has chanted 'Death to America' and waged an unending campaign of bloodshed."
