VOA常速英语:特朗普对伊朗发动无人机袭击

This is VOA news. I'm David Byrd.
President Donald Trump praised the drone strike that killed Iran's top general early Friday. AP's Sagar Meghani has more.

The president says Qassem Soleimani was responsible for killing Americans and has now been terminated. He's trying to tamp down fears that the strike will lead to more conflict in the Middle East.
We took action last night to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war.
The president tells reporters in Florida, he is not looking for "regime change" in Iran but that it must stop using proxy fighters to destabilize the region and he warns targets of possible retaliation have been identified.
... and I am ready and prepared to take whatever action is necessary.
