Trump says US objectives in Iran 'nearing completion'

President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the United States is "nearing completion" of its objectives in the war against Iran and hailed American forces for scoring "overwhelming victories" in the conflict.

"Tonight, I'm pleased to say that these core strategic objectives are nearing completion," Trump said in his first prime-time address since the start of the conflict in late February.

"In these past four weeks, our armed forces have delivered swift, decisive, overwhelming victories on the battlefield -- victories like few people have ever seen before," he said.
