Israel must stop bombing military facilities in Iran and return the planes home. Otherwise, it will be considered a "violation," US President Donald Trump, stated in his post on Truth Social.
"ISRAEL. DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS. IF YOU DO IT IS A MAJOR VIOLATION. BRING YOUR PILOTS HOME, NOW! DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES," Trump wrote in all caps.
Questionable ceasefire
The day before, Trump stated that Iran and Israel had fully agreed to a ceasefire. “This is the end of the war. This is a big event for Israel and the whole world,” Trump said.
After that, Trump stated that the ceasefire had taken effect on June 24 and urged the parties not to violate it.
Israel agreed to the ceasefire. However, on June 24, Iran carried out a strike with ballistic missiles on Israel. In response, Israel struck military facilities in Tehran.
War against Iran
Israel began an operation against Iran on June 13 and achieved significant success in combating Tehran’s nuclear program and its missile capabilities.
The US entered the war on June 22, striking Iran’s nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
In response, on the 23rd, Iran carried out a symbolic strike on the Al-Udeid American airbase in Qatar, which is the largest US facility in the Middle East and at the same time the headquarters of US Central Command.
However, afterward, Trump stated his desire to conclude a ceasefire with the Iranian regime.
