US President Donald Trump on Thursday indicated that the war with Iran \u201cwill end soon,\u201d hailing the US Army for doing an \u201camazing job,\u201d as the conflict between Iran, the United States and Israel enters its 21st day.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking in the Oval Office during a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, Trump explained that he had advised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to repeat the type of attack Israel carried out on a major Iranian gas field. Yet he did not specify whether he had prior knowledge of or approved the Israeli strike in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Earlier, Trump noted that Washington \u201cknew nothing about this particular attack.\u201d The assault on Iran\u2019s South Pars gas field prompted Iranian aerial strikes on energy infrastructure in Qatar and across the Middle East, representing one of the most significant escalations in the ongoing conflict. \u201cI told him, don\u2019t do that, and he won\u2019t do that,\u201d Trump asserted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three Israeli officials, speaking to Reuters on condition of anonymity, described Trump\u2019s social media comments as unsurprising. They compared the response to Israel\u2019s earlier strikes on fuel depots in Iran several weeks ago. Following those attacks, Pentagon Chief Pete Hegseth clarified that \u201cin that particular case those weren\u2019t our strikes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iranian counterattacks have inflicted major damage on the world\u2019s largest gas plant in Qatar, targeted a refinery in Saudi Arabia, and forced the United Arab Emirates to suspend operations at gas facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
