The Trump administration outlined on Apr. 1 its main objectives in ongoing military operations against the Iranian regime, stating that the United States military is carrying out its mission with “unmatched power and precision.” The announcement highlights a continued commitment to targeting Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities, naval forces, and support for terrorist groups.
Officials said these goals have remained consistent since the start of Operation Epic Fury. The administration stated that from the beginning, its aims were to destroy Iran’s ballistic missile arsenal and production facilities, eliminate its navy, disrupt support for proxy groups identified as terrorists, and prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
“From day one, the objectives have been clear and unwavering: obliterate Iran’s ballistic missile arsenal and production capability, annihilate its navy, sever its support for terrorist proxies, and ensure the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism never acquires a nuclear weapon,” according to a statement released by the administration.
The Trump Administration said it has repeatedly reaffirmed these priorities throughout Operation Epic Fury. No additional background or details about specific actions or outcomes were provided in this statement.
As developments continue under Operation Epic Fury, officials indicated that their focus remains on achieving these core security objectives.
