President Donald Trump has said the White House will “have a party” when war between the United States, Israel and Iran ends.

Speaking to journalists aboard Air Force One on Friday (17 April), the president answered questions on Iran’s nuclear capabilities, the expiring ceasefire, and Cuba.

When asked if anything will happen at the White House when the war ends, Trump responded, “We’ll have a party.”

Iran opened and then swiftly closed the Strait of Homuz again on Saturday morning (April 18) after “repeated US violations” through their naval blockade, according to Iran’s armed forces.
