US Senator Bernie Sanders has slammed US President Donald Trump’s strikes on Iran as “grossly unconstitutional”, Al Jazeera reports.

An adviser for the leftist senator has shared footage of him informing a crowd at an event in the city of Tulsa of the US attacks on Iran.

The crowd yells in anger and chants, “No more war”.

“I agree. And I want to tell you something: not only is this news that I’ve just heard alarming, that all of you have just heard, but it is so grossly unconstitutional,” Sanders says.

“All of you know that the only entity that can take this country to war is the US Congress. The president does not have the right.”
