Trump says “not happy” with Israel attacking Iran after ceasefire announcement, tells Tel Aviv to stop
*As Iranian Supreme Security Council warns of "decisive response" against Israel violations
Its top security body, Iran’s Supreme Security Council, warns that Iranian security forces stand ready to respond decisively to any Israeli violations of the ceasefire.
US President Donald Trump says Israel and Iran have both violated the ceasefire, but that he was “really unhappy” with Israel.
On social media, he called on Israel to stop dropping bombs and to “Bring your pilots home, now!”
Earlier, Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz said he has ordered “intense strikes” on the Iranian capital, Tehran, after accusing Iran of violating a truce brokered by the United States and Qatar.
Iran denied the claim and its top security body, Iran’s Supreme Security Council, warns that Iranian security forces stand ready to respond decisively to any Israeli violations of the ceasefire.
Iran also fired a salvo of missiles at a military base in Qatar that houses American troops on Monday evening, in retaliation for the US’s attacks on its nuclear sites a day earlier.
Iran says that more than 400 people, including 13 children, have been killed and at least 3,056 others wounded since Israel launched its attack on June 13. In Israel, at least 24 people have been killed in Iranian strikes.
Trump in the social media post containing strong language was specific about the fact that he “not happy” with Israel for its violations.
“There was one rocket that I guess was fired overboard after the time limit and now Israel is going out. These guys [have] got to calm down,” he said, speaking to reporters before heading to the NATO summit in The Hague.
He added that he did not like “plenty of things” he saw yesterday (Monday).
“I didn’t like the fact that Israel unloaded right after we made the deal,” he says referring to the ceasefire he announced earlier. “They didn’t have to unload.”
The president continues: “We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing.”
