Former US President Donald Trump demanded the return of Americans held in Gaza and vowed to sanction Iran during his speech at the Republican National Convention on Thursday night and warned that amid raging wars in Europe and the Middle East, the world is "teetering on the edge of World War Three."
Trump formally accepted the Republican Party nomination for president at the convention in the midwestern city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
