United StatesPressure on Israel to halt strikesConfirmed

As Israeli jets headed toward Iran, Trump phoned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and, per reporting, told him to 'call back the planes.' He posted on Truth Social: 'Do not drop those bombs... Bring your pilots home, now.' Netanyahu ordered the planes held, and most fighters turned back, with only one target ultimately struck.
