Trump called Iran's attack on the Persian Gulf monarchies "the biggest surprise"

Trump told CNN that after taking action against Iran, the most unexpected thing for Washington was Iran's attacks on targets in Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, and the UAE. According to him, Iranian forces attacked a hotel and an apartment building, which "angered" the countries in the region.

Interestingly, Trump did not mention Iran's attacks on the offshore oil platforms of U.S. partner countries in the Middle East, as well as the airports in the UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain.

Meanwhile, Trump said that the largest wave of strikes against Iran is still to come. Talking about Arab leaders, Trump said, "I know these people. They are tough and shrewd." This was probably an implication that they also want to retaliate for the attacks on their cities.
