Trump says US is destroying Iran's regime as military strikes continue

President Donald Trump stated the US is 'destroying the terrorist regime of Iran' amid ongoing military strikes. Reports indicate a US missile strike hit a school in Iran, causing multiple child casualties, though Trump said he did not know about US involvement in that specific incident.

Analyses suggest the strikes are seen as a move to pressure Iran into surrender and as a strategic check on China. Trump has framed demands for an apology from Iran to Gulf states as a form of 'surrender,' while some reports indicate the conflict is not proceeding as quickly toward a victory as anticipated.
