Donald Trump has reportedly put a planned US strike on Iran on hold after days of escalating tensions. According to reports, the proposed operation would have targeted Iran's energy infrastructure, including oil refineries and power facilities.
The decision reportedly followed three major developments: Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman warned of regional consequences, Iran threatened retaliation against US and Israeli interests, and Kuwait intercepted Iranian drones while attacks near Oman heightened security concerns.
Trump later said the attack was being paused to allow room for a deal, demanding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and an end to Iran's nuclear threat. While Trump claimed Israel supported the pause, no official confirmation has been issued by the Israeli government.
Meanwhile, Iran has not formally responded, and regional powers including Qatar, the UAE, Turkey and Pakistan are pushing for de-escalation. The US has also warned Americans in the Middle East to remain alert as the situation remains volatile.
