US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is holding a news conference at the Pentagon, where he is addressing last weekend’s US strikes on Iran.
He defended the US attack on Iranian nuclear facilities, describing the strikes as historic.
US President Donald Trump announced the briefing on social media yesterday.
“Secretary of Defense (War!) Pete Hegseth, together with Military Representatives, will be holding a Major News Conference tomorrow morning at 8 A.M. EST at The Pentagon, in order to fight for the Dignity of our Great American Pilots,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Wednesday.
“The News Conference will prove both interesting and irrefutable. Enjoy!” he added.
