US Involvement in Israel-Iran Conflict: Trump to Decide ‘Within Two Weeks’
Former President Trump has announced that he will decide within the next two weeks whether the U.S. will take military action in support of Israel’s conflict with Iran. His press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, emphasized that this timeline is flexible pending potential diplomatic negotiations with Tehran on its nuclear program.
- Trump is reportedly considering targeting deeply buried sites like Iran’s Fordow facility with bunker-buster bombs, and has even pre‑approved strike plans.
- However, he is giving diplomacy another chance and has hinted at upcoming talks—European mediators from the UK, France, and Germany are scheduled to meet Iran’s foreign minister in Geneva .
- The conflict has recently intensified: Israeli airstrikes have hit sites like Arak, and Iran responded with ballistic missiles, including one targeting Soroka Hospital in Beersheba, causing civilian casualties.
- International players—including China, Russia, and European nations—are urging restraint. Russia and China have warned the U.S. against intervening.
In summary: Trump is weighing a decision on U.S. military involvement, balancing between a potential diplomatic breakthrough and the option to act militarily. Expect a definitive announcement by early July.
