US President Donald Trump said he cancelled a planned attack on Iran after being asked to hold off by Tehran and other Middle Eastern countries. They cited agreement on the framework of a potential deal.

The proposed agreement would include the immediate and complete reopening of the Hormuz Strait and an end to Iran's nuclear threat, according to Trump. He said this on Truth Social.

The US remains ready to strike Iran forcefully and is "locked and loaded and ready to go", Trump added. Israel joins him in this commitment. Iran's acting Defense Minister, Seyyed Majid Ibn Al-Reza, said in a state media post that they consider every threat to be real and take it seriously.
