Trump reacts after Iran fires missiles at US base
Legit.ng earlier reported that Iran fired a salvo of missiles at a US military base in Qatar on Monday, June 23, in retaliation for the attacks on its nuclear sites a day earlier.
Iran said more than 400 people, including 13 children, have been killed and at least 3,056 others wounded since Israel launched its attack on June 13. In Israel, at least 24 people have been killed in Iranian strikes.
Of the 14 missiles fired at a U.S. base in Qatar, Trump, in a post shared on his X page, said that “13 were knocked down, and 1 was ‘set free,’ because it was headed in a nonthreatening direction.”
Trump described Iran's attack as very weak and stated that Iran might be able to “now proceed to peace and harmony” and he said would encourage Israel to do the same.
