The White House has denied that remarks by US Vice President Jadeh Vance about military operations in Iran had contained any suggestion of a nuclear strike against the Islamic Republic. Vance was speaking from Hungary when he remarked that US forces have tools they have not yet opted to use. Earlier Donald Trump warned that an entire civilisation would die tonight, should Iran not agree to a deal to reopen the strait of Hamuz, when asked about the President's social media post. Vance suggested there are weapons that Trump hasn't used yet that he could be willing to. Benjamin Netanyahu has confirmed that the IDF has hit bridges and railways in Iran after the US struck the energy hub of Har Garland. The Israeli Prime Minister stressed that the strikes did not target civilians, with the facilities used by Iran's revolutionary guards.
