Israel, US military learnt Trump cancelled Iran strike through social media: Report
Israeli officials and US Central Command were not informed ahead of time about President Donald Trump's decision to cancel an attack on Iran, learning of it through a Truth Social post.
Trump's post claimed Israel joined his commitment to cancel the attack, but Jerusalem did not immediately make a public statement.
Trump stated he canceled the attack after receiving assurances from Iran and Middle Eastern countries of a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end Iran's nuclear threat.
Iranian military officials called Trump's claim that Tehran asked for the attack to be called off a 'lie', accusing him of attempting to pressure Gulf leaders.
Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi warned the US against 'adventurous action' and said Tehran would retaliate decisively if attacked.
