US President Donald Trump reiterated on Thursday during a rally in Rock Hill, South Carolina, that the war with Iran will end 'very, very soon,' although he avoided giving an exact date.

At a rally in Rock Hill, Trump told supporters, 'Everybody knows we had to attack Iran. We had to make sure they never have a nuclear weapon, and it's gonna be over very, very soon,' emphasizing the need to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

In a radio interview with KCMO, Trump said, 'The war will end soon, one way or another,' and added, 'We need a guarantee there'll never be a nuclear weapon.' He also suggested that Iran's navy was 'all at the bottom of the sea,' and that the IRGC was not present during his observation.

During a campaign event in Nebraska, Trump stated that gas prices would come down after the war with Iran ends 'very soon,' and suggested that Iran could target cities like Los Angeles and San Diego, indicating the severity of the conflict.

Transit routes in the Strait of Hormuz deemed illegal by Iran will soon be closed, according to an adviser to the Revolutionary Guards’ Commander, referring to the southern pathway hugging Oman’s coast.
