“for all of the people that they have killed”
Reported August 11, 2026 by timescall.com. Checked word for word against that report.
After Iran sought reparations for U.S.-Israeli strikes, President Trump said he had told his negotiators to request compensation from Iran for deaths and serious injuries it had caused in past conflicts. His remarks came as Houthi rebels, backed by Iran, launched new missile and drone strikes on Yemeni government-held areas including Mokha and Marib, raising fears the 2022 truce could collapse and endangering Red Sea shipping. Iran's foreign minister repeated that Tehran would not reopen the Strait of Hormuz until Washington lifts its naval blockade and meets other conditions. The waterway carried about one-fifth of global oil trade, and the standoff is influencing U.S. energy politics ahead of midterms. Trump also claimed full U.S. control of the strait.
