U.S. President Donald Trump has informed his top advisors that he may refrain from launching new attacks against Iran, unless Tehran or Yemen's Houthi group takes provocative actions, according to informed sources cited by Reuters. This potential shift in policy aligns with the positions of Saudi Arabia and Turkey, both of which have urged Trump against resuming strikes on Iran. In contrast, Israel continues to press the United States to engage in a new military operation. Over the past two weeks, Trump held phone conversations with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who both advised him against renewing strikes on Iran. However, sources indicated that Trump did not make any commitment to them regarding refraining from attacks.
