On June 7, the situation in the Middle East rapidly deteriorated.
Israel launched airstrikes on Beirut; in response, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps fired ballistic missiles at northern Israel.
Both sides continued exchanging attacks.
Amid this backdrop, Donald Trump urged Benjamin Netanyahu to stop escalating tensions. The U.S. leader hopes to maintain negotiations regarding Iran’s nuclear program.
Donald Trump warned Benjamin Netanyahu that launching a new round of strikes against Iran could bring consequences.
Speaking in an interview with N12 television, the U.S. president said that if Tel Aviv continues to escalate the situation, the United States might refuse to provide aid to Israel.
Trump also told Netanyahu in a gentle tone: “I’ve said it before, Bibi (Netanyahu’s nickname), you must be extremely cautious in your actions, because soon you may find yourself facing Iran alone.”
This American politician added that five countries in the region are involved in mediation efforts between the U.S. and Iran.
These nations have requested that Trump exert influence over Netanyahu.
Their goal is to halt attacks on Iran and advance global agreement negotiations.
Trump added: “This morning, Iranians contacted us and said they would no longer attack Israel. They asked us to tell Israel to stop attacking. I called [Netanyahu] and told him to stop.”
The Iranian Armed Forces stated in a statement: “We inflicted heavy damage on Israel and have halted this operation. The illegal Zionist regime must learn its lesson.”
