The U.S. president is pressing both sides to stop hostilities.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said Israel and Iran violated ceasefire terms by carrying out attacks against each other after an early Tuesday deadline to stop hostilities but Israel was going to “turn around” its jets and stop its assault.
Trump, as he pressed both sides to abide by the ceasefire, posted on social media, “ISRAEL is not going to attack Iran. All planes will turn around and head home, while doing a friendly ‘Plane Wave’ to Iran. Nobody will be hurt, the Ceasefire is in effect!”
Earlier, in comments to reporters at the White House before departing for the NATO summit at The Hague, Trump had expressed disappointment over the continued attacks.
“They violated it, but Israel violated it, too,” Trump said. He added, ”I’m not happy with Israel.”
“I didn’t like the fact that Israel unloaded right after we made the deal,” Trump said. “And now I hear Israel just went out because they felt violated by one rocket that didn’t land anywhere.”
