“I have just been informed that we have destroyed and sunk 9 Iranian Naval Ships, some of them relatively large and important,” President Donald Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Sunday.

“We are going after the rest — They will soon be floating at the bottom of the sea, also! In a different attack, we largely destroyed their Naval Headquarters. Other than that, their Navy is doing very well!” Trump added.
