President Trump said Israel did not pressure him into launching strikes against Iran, claiming instead that he believed Iran was preparing to attack first. He stated that based on ongoing negotiations, he felt preemptive action was necessary, adding that both the U.S. and Israel were ready and that the strikes had a “very powerful impact,” with much of Iran’s capabilities “virtually knocked out.” | Express Tribune
