America is voting in midterm polls today, and with the conclusion of the voting process, a deadline set by President Donald Trump in an earlier statement that the US would not attack Iran before the midterms will have passed.

President Trump, during a phone interview with Fox News on Tuesday, November 3, said the US could take further military action against Iran if necessary, although he did not announce a decision to launch a new attack. "Look, I'm not looking to, you know, kill lots of people, but if we have to, we'll have to," Trump said.
"We could finish them off or be nice and let thousands of people live that would get killed in a war," he added.
The statement came amid reports that the US was weighing further military action against Iran after the midterm elections. However, Trump had said a day earlier that he was not considering an attack after Election Day.

Trump said American forces struck a newly completed Iranian anti-aircraft installation overnight after monitoring its construction for over two months.

"Just a minor attack. It wasn't war," he said.
