Trump warns Iran of ‘heavy price’ in case of attack on US troops

WASHINGTON (HRNW) – President Donald Trump warned Iran on Wednesday of a “heavy price” if it or its allies in Iraq attack US troops stationed there.

“We don t want hostility, but if they are hostile to us, they re going to regret it like they ve never regretted anything before,” he said of Iran at a White House press briefing on the coronavirus pandemic.

“If this happens, Iran will pay a very heavy price, indeed!” Trump tweeted earlier in the day.

The US president also wrote: “Upon information and belief, Iran or its proxies are planning a sneak attack on US troops and/or assets in Iraq.”

It was not clear whether Trump meant Washington actually has intelligence of such a plan.
