Trump Slams Both Sides Over Ceasefire Collapse
Trump’s Ceasefire Collapses
A ceasefire brokered by Donald Trump between Iran and Israel unraveled within hours as both nations traded accusations and missile strikes. Trump had urged, “Please do not violate” the deal and later warned, “ISRAEL. DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS… BRING YOUR PILOTS HOME, NOW.”
Mutual Violations and Escalation
Israel claimed Iran fired two ballistic missiles, while Iran denied involvement and accused Israel of multiple attacks by 9 a.m. Iran time. Trump later said, “I am not happy with either side.”
Rising Death Toll and Global Reactions
Four died in Israel and at least nine in Iran. Iran also struck a US base in Qatar, which it claimed was self-defense. Qatar called the attack “unacceptable.”
Nuclear Concerns and Russia’s Position
Despite strikes, Iran retains enriched uranium, raising nuclear fears. Russia supported a ceasefire but warned against “hasty conclusions.” The IAEA urged Iran to resume cooperation.
