The Wall Street Journal reported that President Trump criticized Israel and Iran for continuing to attack after he announced the ceasefire agreement when he spoke to reporters at the White House on the morning of the 24th. Trump said: “These guys should calm down, it’s ridiculous.”
Trump announced on the evening of the 23rd that Israel and Iran agreed to a 12-hour ceasefire and to end the war completely after 24 hours of the ceasefire. Trump said that Israel and Iran approached the United States almost at the same time, hoping that the United States would promote a ceasefire, and Qatar also played a role in the negotiation process of the ceasefire agreement.
However, a few hours after the ceasefire agreement was announced, Israel said it was attacked by Iranian missiles again and said it would retaliate with force. Iran accused Israel of launching a third wave of attacks.
Trump told the media on the morning of the 24th: “I don’t like the way Israel reacted this morning. I will see if I can stop it.” Trump said that after finishing his speech to the media, he would continue to mediate a ceasefire agreement. He said that basically these are two countries that have been fighting for a long time, and the situation is quite tricky. “They don’t know what they are doing at all.”
