Donald Trump has sent a stern warning to Iran after claiming responsibility for striking a key bridge – saying there is ‘more to follow’.

Iran’s B1 bridge, a recently-constructed overpass that connected the city of Karaj to capital Tehran, was struck and partially destroyed – there were more than 100 people injured and at least eight deaths as a result.

He said: “The biggest bridge in Iran comes tumbling down, never to be used again”. Trump then warned there would be “much more to follow” if a settlement was not reached.

Meanwhile, the US Army Chief of Staff General Randy George has stepped down and taken immediate retirement, reportedly on Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s orders.

Sources have told CBS News Hegseth wants someone in the role who will bring in his and President Trump’s vision for the Army. General George was expected to stay until at least the summer, making his sudden departure all the more dramatic, NBC reported.
