Summary
Trump said Iran is taking “too long to negotiate a deal” and warned it would “pay the price” after the U.S. struck Iran early Wednesday.
Those strikes followed the crash of a U.S. Army attack helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz, which Trump blamed on Tehran, though he did not say what new punishment he meant.
Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan later came under Iranian fire, marking the second time this week that military exchanges have strained a ceasefire already tested by Monday’s Iran-Israel strikes.
Netanyahu simultaneously insisted Iran can never have a nuclear weapon and signaled broader goals including toppling Tehran’s government, adding pressure on already fragile efforts to end the war.
