US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth will hold a "major" news conference on Thursday morning, President Donald Trump said, as his administration pushes to quell doubts over the damage done by US strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities.
"Hegseth, together with Military Representatives, will be holding a Major News Conference tomorrow morning at 8 A.M. EST at The Pentagon, in order to fight for the Dignity of our Great American Pilots," Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Wednesday.
"The News Conference will prove both interesting and irrefutable," he said.
