Washington: President Donald Trump will deliver a prime-time address Wednesday evening at 9 p.m. ET to provide an update on U.S. actions in the Iran conflict, the White House announced. The speech comes about one month after U.S. and Israeli strikes began on Feb. 28. The address follows troop deployments, reported U.S. casualties and rising gasoline prices; officials said it aims to reassure the public about objectives and timelines. As of Wednesday, Iran denied U.S. claims of ceasefire discussions and markets remained sensitive to developments, with domestic approval ratings under pressure.
