Israel-Iran Conflict: Donald Trump said he had “given Iran chance after chance” to make a deal.

US President Donald Trump said that Iran hardliners who refused to negotiate are now “dead" as he warned that the situation will only worsen if Tehran fails to act swiftly amid a

fresh wave of conflict between Israel and Iran.

Donald Trump said he had “given Iran chance after chance" to make a deal and warned the Iranian leadership that the US and Israel possess the most lethal military technology in the world.

“They are all DEAD now, and it will only get worse!" the US President said, referencing the deaths of key Iranian commanders, including the Revolutionary Guard chief Hossein Salami, killed in Israeli strikes overnight.

Donald Trump said, “Iran must make a deal, before there is nothing left, and save what was once known as the Iranian Empire. No more death, no more destruction—JUST DO IT, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE."

Israel vs Iran: What Has Happened So Far?

The US President’s comments come after a night of intense Israeli airstrikes on Iranian soil, with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claiming to have targeted nuclear facilities and high-ranking military figures. In retaliation, Iran launched approximately 100 drones toward Israeli territory, most of which were intercepted, according to the IDF.

Iranian state media confirmed the deaths of six scientists and claimed that civilian casualties- including children- have also occurred.

The United States has denied involvement in the Israeli operations. While Trump acknowledged he was aware of the strikes in advance, he emphasized, “The US played no part" although Iran accused Washington of complicity and fueling fears of a broader regional conflict.
