Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth said Tuesday – the 11th day of ongoing Iran war – will be the “most intense" of American attacks.

Hegseth, who is the US Defense Secretary, said attacks on Iran will ramp up with the heaviest strikes. “We will not stop till the enemy is totally defeated. In the last 24 hours, Iran has fired the lowest number of missiles. The US will not relent till Iran is totally defeated," Hegseth told a news conference at the Pentagon. “Today will be yet again our most intense day of strikes inside Iran."
