> US President Donald Trump said Ukraine rejected powerful US ammunition because it lacked the aircraft and other equipment needed to use it. He said the US could launch new bombing campaigns against Iran after November’s congressional midterm elections, called Tehran’s Strait of Hormuz reopening proposal insufficient and said Iran could still be wiped off the map.
