Corroborated · Strait of Hormuz, Iran (approximate) ·
Trump says he would make the same decision on the Iran war again, that he had no choice, and that he expected oil prices to rise much more. A video posted by ME Observer shows him answering whether the war was worth it, and Middle East Eye reports him saying the war was largely responsible for the Republican midterm losses and that he would act again to stop Iran getting a nuclear weapon. TPOnow relays his claims that the US has destroyed Iran's military capabilities and that the Strait of Hormuz is open, and Al Mayadeen English relays that the war drove gasoline prices up.

Details by origin
Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
