Trump willing to end war ‘without reopening Strait of Hormuz’ as Iran strikes oil tanker in Dubai port – live updates

Netanyahu says Iran war goals achieved ‘beyond halfway point’

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the war on Iran had achieved more than half its aims, without putting a timeline on when it would end.

‘It’s definitely beyond the halfway point. But I don’t want to put a schedule on it,’ Netanyahu told the conservative US broadcaster Newsmax.

He added that he meant the war was more than halfway ‘in terms of missions, not necessarily in terms of time.’

President Donald Trump, who launched the war with Netanyahu on February 28, initially said the operation would last for four to six weeks.

While Secretary of State Marco Rubio said yesterday the war would last ‘weeks’ further instead of months.

Netanyahu said the war had achieved goals including killing “thousands” of members of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, adding Israel and the US are also ‘close to finishing their arms industry’.
