Israel’s attack on Iran was long in the making – the result of years of meticulous planning by Israel and days of high-stakes talks between Tel Aviv and Washington, officials told CNN.

In the wake of a series of strikes by Israel on Iran's nuclear sites, potentially pushing the Middle East to the brink of an all-out conflict, President Donald Trump told ABC News he thought the attacks had been "excellent" and suggested there was "more to come."

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.) said in a social media post that if Iran doesn't take up President Trump's offer to return to the negotiating table, the U.S. should "go all-in to help Israel finish the job.

President Donald Trump is urging Iran to make a nuclear deal now that Israel has launched strikes against the country.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday "this war in Israel-Iran should end," with his comments coming in a social media post on his call with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
