US president says talks with Tehran reached the highest levels of Iran’s leadership, prompting him to call off attacks

“Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.

The announcement marked the latest twist in a months-long crisis that has seen Washington impose a naval blockade on Iranian oil exports while repeatedly threatening military action against Tehran.
