Trump calls it a “big day in Iran” after US strikes. Oil prices surge, and tensions rise as Iran accuses the US of planning a ground invasion.

US President Donald Trump, in his Truth Social post, claimed that March 30 was the “big day” for Iran. In his Truth Social Post Trump claimed that the US has already taken out "many long-sought-after targets". This post comes after Trump's claim that Iran has already achieved its objective of regime change in Iran.

“Big day in Iran. Many long-sought-after targets have been taken out and destroyed by our GREAT MILITARY, the finest and most lethal in the World. God bless you all!” wrote Trump in his latest Truth Social Post.

Trump had earlier suggested that a deal with Iran is close and claimed that they have already changed the earlier group of leaders. “It's a whole different group of people. So I would consider that regime change,” said US President Donald Trump while speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One.
