Donald Trump issues chilling threat to 'defeated' Iran: 'Now they will pay the price!'

Iran launched missile and drone attacks on US bases in Jordan, Kuwait and Bahrain in retaliation for American strikes on Iranian targets around the Strait of Hormuz. The exchange of fire, which came after The Potus claimed Iran had downed a US Apache helicopter near the strait, marks one of the most significant escalations since Washington and Tehran agreed to a ceasefire in April. Officials in Iran said they would be reassessing diplomatic engagement with Washington after the tit-for-tat strikes overnight.
