Donald Trump has said the US may act “disproportionately” if Iran attacks any American “person or target” in revenge for the killing of Major General Qassem Soleimani.

The US president tweeted after Tehran vowed to the avenge the death of its top general, who died in a US drone strike.

Mr Trump wrote: “These Media Posts will serve as notification to the United States Congress that should Iran strike any U.S. person or target, the United States will quickly & fully strike back, & perhaps in a disproportionate manner.

“Such legal notice is not required, but is given nevertheless!”

Meanwhile, Iraq is intending to expel foreign troops following Friday’s deadly airstrike in Baghdad.

The Iraqi parliament also wants the government to ensure foreign troops do not use its land, air and waters for any reason.

It came after Iraq’s foreign ministry denounced the US drone attack as a “blatant” violation of sovereignty and a breach of the agreement between Iraq and the US-led coalition.
