Trump says Iran's navy and air force are 'gone'
President Donald Trump said Thursday Iran’s navy and air force are “gone” and suggested Tehran’s leaders are ready to make a deal. Trump also urged Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, military and police to lay down their arms, vowing “total immunity" from the U.S.

Satellite images and videos of an Iranian girls school damaged by large explosions at the start of a U.S.-Israeli airstrike campaign targeting the Islamic Republic indicate a targeted attack from the air hit the building. That's according to military experts who spoke to The Associated Press. Iran says the blast killed at least 165 people, most of them children. The location of the strike, its affiliation to a coastal defense unit of Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard and the tight pattern of the damage suggest a targeted airstrike on the site. Several factors point to a U.S. strike, given the proximity of American forces to the school and focus on missile sites and naval forces in the war.
