Iran war LIVE: Trump says ‘clock is ticking’ and shares image of him pressing nuke button | World | News

US President Donald Trump threatened Iran once again shortly before posting a photo of himself pressing the big red button.

The USA and Iran have been in conflict since February 28. The two countries have failed to agree on a long-term solution to end the war that has shaken global markets and disrupted the Middle East.

In a post on Truth Social on Sunday, May 17, Trump wrote: “The Clock is Ticking for Iran and they better act FAST or there will be nothing left of them. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! President DJT”

This was followed hours later by AI footage of the US leader pressing the nuclear button while screens behind Trump showed mushroom-shaped feathers.
