Talks between the United States and Iran over Tehran’s nuclear program will no longer take place after days of Israel and Iran exchanging strikes.
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan told his Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was trying to set the region on fire and to sabotage nuclear talks with attacks.
Iran has warned it will ramp up its nuclear activities after the United Nations nuclear watchdog’s 35-member board of governors adopted a resolution Thursday declaring it in breach of its non-proliferation obligations.
President Donald Trump said Israel “could very well” strike Iran but that he had advised against an attack while negotiations over Tehran’s nuclear program were ongoing, as the departure of US staff from the region fans concerns about a coming strike.
If Trump blocks Israel from attacking Tehran's nuclear sites without resolving the threat, Jerusalem will miss a rare opportunity to eliminate the Iranian nuclear threat.
"This confrontation will not end with last night's limited actions and Iran's strikes will continue, and this action will be very painful and regrettable for the aggressors," Fars reported, citing senior military officials.
