As Iran retaliates, largest US military base in Middle East hit by ballistic missile, Qatar says

President Donald Trump on Sunday posted a video acknowledging for the first time on camera the death of three U.S. troops killed during the U.S. operation against Iran over the weekend.

The president said he was sending “our immense love and eternal gratitude to the families of the fallen” before warning that more U.S. troops will “likely” be killed as the operation rages on.

“Earlier today, CENTCOM shared the news that three U.S. military service members have been killed in action. As one nation, we grieve for the true American patriots who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation, even as we continue the righteous mission for which they gave their lives, we pray for the full recovery of the wounded and send our immense love and eternal gratitude to the families of the fallen,” Trump said.

“And sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. That's the way it is -- likely be more, but we'll do everything possible. But that won't be the case. But America will avenge their deaths and deliver the most punishing blow to the terrorists who have waged war against, basically, civilization,” Trump added.

Trump started the speech by touting the nine Iranian naval vessels he said were sunk, and said, for the first time on camera, that the Ayatollah was dead. The president also said that “the entire military command is gone” in Iran.

Later in the speech, Trump warned that those who did not surrender would face “certain death.”

The United Arab Emirates Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Sunday that it is closing its embassy in Tehran and withdrawing its ambassador to Iran.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also said in the same statement that it is withdrawing all members of its diplomatic mission in Iran.

The decision was made "in response to the blatant Iranian missile attacks that targeted the UAE's territory," the statement reads, in part.

"These hostile attacks against civilian sites, including residential areas, airports, ports, and service facilities, endangered innocent civilians in a serious and irresponsible escalation and constitute a flagrant violation of national sovereignty, as well as a clear breach of international law and the Charter of the United Nations," the statement further said.
