The US and Iran have once again traded threats of military action – this time, over President Donald Trump’s demands for a nuclear deal.
He says a ‘massive armada’ is heading toward Iran, and is poised to carry out attacks, following a steady build up of US military assets in the region over the past month.
Iran’s leaders have warned the US they have ‘fingers on the trigger’, and their country will defend itself against US strikes.
