President Donald Trump addressed reporters during a bill signing ceremony in the Oval Office on Wednesday morning, making extensive claims about a covert military operation aimed at influencing global oil marKets amid ongoing tensions with Iran .

The president emphasized that the United States, not Iran, controls the strategic waterway, declaring Iran's military defeated and its economy shattered.
