Trump says Iran sites 'totally destroyed,' slams US media after Qatar attack

After Iran's missile attack on US bases in Qatar, US President Donald Trump stated that American strikes on Iranian targets had caused total destruction. Taking to his social platform, Trump wrote, "The sites that we hit in Iran were totally destroyed, and everyone knows it."

He also launched a scathing attack on several major US media figures and networks, accusing them of spreading fake claims and undermining the success of the US response. "Only the Fake News would say anything different sleazebags in the media," Trump said, naming CNN’s Allison Cooper, ABC’s Jon Karl, and executives from NBC and Comcast. He alleged that mainstream media outlets now have "ZERO CREDIBILITY."

This is a developing story.
