No More Fireworks: Trump's Tough Talk to Israel Over Ceasefire Violations
Trump's Tough Stance Towards Israel: "Recall Your Aircraft Personnel"
It's a murky playground as tensions linger post Israel-Iran's so-called ceasefire. The ball started rolling with Tehran allegedly firing off a rocket, followed by counterattacks reports. Iran claims Israel launched multiple attack waves. But America's President, Donald Trump, isn't mincing words with Israel.
Trump, via his Truth Social platform, delivers a stern message. "ISRAEL! Hands off those bombs," he writes, threatening a "significant violation" of the ceasefire if Israel persists. He then urges a quick retreat, "Recall your pilots, now!"
Forty minutes post his first missive, Trump reassures readers that Israel has no intentions of attacking Iran. He says, "All planes turn tail and fly back home, giving Tehran a friendly wave. No one gets hurt, the ceasefire stands. Thank you for your attention on this matter."
Ceasefire on Thin Ice
Trump announced the ceasefire between Israel and Iran in the dead of the night, claiming it became effective by dawn. However, both parties have since accused each other of violating the agreement.
Trump, addressing a Washington audience, suggests both Israel and Iran sustained injuries in this deal. He refers to the escalated Israeli bombings after the ceasefire. He acknowledges his dissatisfaction with Israel but proposes the Iranian rocket attack post-ceasefire might have resulted from a misunderstanding[1].
A Nervy Game of Cat and Mouse
The Israeli army alleges another Iranian rocket attack, with Israel’s Defense Minister, Israel Katz, reportedly ordering retaliation with "powerful attacks on regime targets right in the heart of Tehran." In turn, the Iranian military claims Israel launched "three attack waves on positions within Iranian territory" till 9 am local time (7.30 am CEST)[2].
