US President Donald Trump has called on Israel and Iran to immediately stop attacking each other, saying a peace agreement between the two sides could be reached within days. In a post on Truth Social, Trump urged both countries to end hostilities and return to negotiations.
His remarks come after reports claimed that Trump had privately asked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to retaliate against recent Iranian missile attacks, warning that any fresh escalation could derail ongoing peace efforts.
According to Axios, Trump spoke with Netanyahu after Iran launched missiles at Israel on June 7, seeking to prevent renewed tensions from undermining negotiations aimed at ending the three-month conflict. He also urged Tehran to return to the negotiating table.
Speaking to Fox News, Trump said the two sides were “very close” to an agreement and suggested a peace deal could be signed as early as Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. He claimed the Iranian strikes caused no major damage and expressed hope that Israel would avoid a military response.
Trump also criticised Israel’s strikes on Beirut on June 7, saying he was “not happy” with the attacks. Axios, citing a US official, reported that Trump told Netanyahu to pause military action as a potential agreement was within reach.
