A conflict with Iran has resulted in the deaths of 18 US military personnel and hundreds of injuries. The conflict has also led to an increase in gas prices.

President Donald Trump has downplayed the situation, describing it as "poca cosa". He has referred to the conflict as a military conflict rather than a war, stating that it is not something important for the US.

Further details about the conflict and the president's comments are available from the source, including statements from the vice president about the nature of the conflict.
