President Donald Trump on Wednesday morning warned that a “massive armada” is headed towards Iran.

“A massive Armada is heading to Iran. It is moving quickly, with great power, enthusiasm, and purpose,” Trump wrote on TRUTH Social.

Trump said the armada is bigger than the one sent to Venezuela and called on Iran to come to the table for a deal.

“It is a larger fleet, headed by the great Aircraft Carrier Abraham Lincoln, than that sent to Venezuela,” his post continued.

“Like with Venezuela, it is, ready, willing, and able to rapidly fulfill its mission, with speed and violence, if necessary. Hopefully Iran will quickly “Come to the Table” and negotiate a fair and equitable deal - NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS - one that is good for all parties.”

Earlier this week, it was reported that the Trump administration sanctioned nine ships that were allegedly evading restrictions on Iranian oil.

In the past, Trump threatened to go after the Iranian regime if the protesters kept being killed.

Trump referenced “Operation Midnight Hammer” where the U.S. attacked Iran last year, saying another attack would be worse.

“As I told Iran once before, MAKE A DEAL!” Trump’s post concluded. “They didn’t, and there was “Operation Midnight Hammer,” a major destruction of Iran. The next attack will be far worse! Don’t make that happen again. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
