Trump warns Israel and Iran not to ‘blow it’ after new strikes threaten emerging ceasefire deal
- President Donald Trump issued an urgent warning to Israel and Iran to "let's not blow it," forcefully demanding that both nations immediately halt escalating military strikes that threaten to derail a highly anticipated regional peace agreement.
- The warning followed intense Israeli airstrikes targeting Hezbollah infrastructure in Beirut, which Lebanese civil defense officials reported killed three people and forced the evacuation of nearly 30 southern villages.
- Trump publicly criticized the scale of the Israeli operation as disproportionate, asserting that Israel had responded to a "very small and meaningless" provocation that caused no casualties, and stated firmly that such actions should not disrupt the diplomatic process.
- The sudden surge in violence highlights a fragile timeline, arriving less than 24 hours after Trump confidently declared the treaty would be signed on Sunday—a prediction that Iranian state media and regional mediators have cautiously walked back as text adjustments continue.
