On July 19, U.S. President Donald Trump acknowledged that Iran, despite the strikes carried out by the U.S. Armed Forces, still retains stockpiles of missiles and drones, as well as certain production capabilities for manufacturing weapons.

“They have some missiles. They have some drones. They have some production capacity, not too much,” Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews near Washington.

According to the American leader, the United States controls the Strait of Hormuz, while Iran controls nothing. Trump added that Washington would deliver another very powerful strike against Iran later this evening.
