United States President Donald Trump stated he had suspended raids against Iran to give diplomacy a chance, while emphasizing he is ready for strong action should no results be achieved. The president specified that diplomacy will not be given "much time."

The statements come amid ongoing tensions in the Gulf, where the conflict has continued for approximately six months. According to news sources, the clashes have caused around 60 deaths in 12 days, with no decisive breakthrough currently in sight.

In parallel, a meeting is scheduled at the White House between Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during which Netanyahu reportedly intends to oppose any Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria.
