U.S. President Donald Trump has told advisors he may hold off on attacking Iran unless provoked, despite Israeli pressure for military action. Trump has consulted with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan, who both urged him not to resume attacks. The conflict, launched in February with Israel, is unpopular domestically and has impacted global fuel prices. U.S. intelligence indicates sanctions are hurting Iran's economy, while the military remains prepared for escalation.
