Oil prices plunge as Donald Trump issues 2-word statement on Iran war | World | News
The benchmark oil price Brent crude oil also decreased by -4.49% to 8.533. This comes as the Iran crisis over the weekend has seen oil prices soar to nearly $120 per barrel. This came after Mr Trump said the war with Iran was over with US forces destroying Tehran’s navy and air force.
He told GB News: “I think the war is almost over. They have no navy, no communications, no air force. Their missiles are scattered.”
“Their UAVs are being detonated everywhere, including drone manufacturing. When you look at it, they have nothing left. In military terms, there is nothing left.”
He said: “We went on a little trip because we felt we needed to do it to get rid of some bad things. Then you’ll see it will be a short-term trip.
“In many respects we have already won, but we have not won enough. We are moving forward more determined than ever to achieve the final victory that will put an end to this long-standing danger once and for all.”

Then, a few minutes later, he said the battle wasn’t over but “it’ll be over pretty quickly.” He added: “They were 100% going to attack us within a week. They were ready.”
“They had a lot more missiles than anyone thought and they were going to attack us, but they were going to attack the whole Middle East and Israel.
“And if they had nuclear weapons, they would use it against Israel. And it would be a major attack.
“I know they had all those missile sites and launchers, so we got rid of them, by the way about 80% of them have gotten rid of most of them now, you know, look, they’ve had a very small amount of kills. They’ve got very few launches left.”
