Trump vows US will strike Iran's Pickaxe Mountain 'pretty soon'

President Donald Trump is vowing the U.S. military will soon launch strikes on Iran's Pickaxe Mountain, a fortified underground facility the U.S. and Israel suspect could be used for nuclear activity. Trump admitted Tuesday that while there is no hard evidence Iran is using the site for nuclear purposes, he said they "may have" stored centrifuges there. "We'll be hitting that area very, probably pretty soon," Trump said. "There's not a thing they can do about it. You know, normally I wouldn't say that. If I thought they could do something about it, I would never say that. But we'll be hitting that area pretty soon, and very heavily." Trump also dismissed the idea of meeting with Iranian leaders to negotiate an end to the war, while warning of more U.S. attacks to come. "I will tell you, they want to desperately meet," he said. "And until they’re ready to meet in a meaningful way, we have no interest in meeting." ------------------------------------- Follow Scripps News on other platforms— Join our newsletter at https://bit.ly/2q1tepr Follow us on Facebook:   / scrippsnews   Follow us on X: https://x.com/scrippsnews Follow us on Instagram:   / scrippsnews   Follow us on TikTok:   / scrippsnews
