President Donald Trump denied reports that top US general Dan Caine warned against striking Iran, insisting the US would “easily” win any war. Media outlets reported concerns over casualties and prolonged conflict, but Trump dismissed them as false. While threatening military action if nuclear talks fail, he said he prefers a deal. Further US-Iran negotiations are scheduled this week.
