Hegseth warns Iranian leaders to 'choose wisely' on deal with US: 'We are locked and loaded'

War Secretary Pete Hegseth warned Iranian leaders to “choose wisely” on whether to accept a peace deal with the U.S. on Thursday.

Hegseth made the comments during a press briefing at the Pentagon, saying the U.S. military is “locked and loaded” and prepared to strike Iran’s energy infrastructure.

“If Iran chooses poorly, they will have a blockade and bombs dropping on infrastructure, power and energy,” Hegseth said.
