President Trump informed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the United States would not pursue further offensive military action against Iran following Sunday’s airstrikes on three Iranian nuclear sites, according to a senior White House official.
The official said Trump told Netanyahu it was time to halt the war and shift back to diplomacy. Trump reportedly conveyed that the strikes had neutralized the immediate threat from Iran and that the U.S. had no intention of deepening its military involvement.
According to the official, Netanyahu acknowledged Trump’s position and understood that Washington was not seeking continued engagement in the conflict.
