"Every Ship Is Blown To Pieces": Trump Says Iran Navy Is Gone & A Deal Is "Very Possible"

In a statement from the White House, President Donald Trump has declared a total military victory in the 40-day conflict with Iran. Speaking to reporters on May 6, 2026, Trump asserted that the Iranian Navy, once 159 ships strong, has been "blown to pieces" and now lies at the bottom of the sea. The President provided a grim assessment of Tehran’s remaining capabilities, claiming their Air Force is non-existent, their radar systems are destroyed, and nearly 80% of their missile arsenal has been decimated. Most significantly, Trump claimed that the Iranian leadership has been wiped out, leaving the nation in a state of total collapse. Despite the heavy rhetoric, Trump revealed a major diplomatic pivot, reporting "very good talks" with Tehran over the last 24 hours. Is a historic peace deal on the horizon, or is this the final ultimatum before a "big step further"?
