Trump Halts Iran-Israel Escalation

Iran and Israel narrowly avoided escalating into full-blown war after a direct missile exchange late Sunday — the most intense clash since April’s ceasefire. President Trump intervened with a social media plea for both sides to stop firing, and within hours, both announced they had halted attacks. Trump also warned Israeli PM Netanyahu that Israel could be left fighting alone if tensions rise. Iran says its strikes were retaliation for Israeli hits on Hezbollah, while Israel claims it targeted an Iranian missile facility. Iran vows a “painful response” if aggression continues — especially in southern Lebanon — underscoring how fragile this peace is. With U.S. sanctions still in place and Trump pushing for final peace talks, the world watches closely to see if this uneasy calm lasts.
