United States President Donald Trump, who was seen clearly irate with the ceasefire violation by the warring countries -- Israel and Iran -- on Tuesday said that he was unhappy with the violations and claimed "they don't know what the f*** they are doing".
Trump as he left the White House earlier today for the NATO summit at The Hague said, "They (Iran) violated, but Israel violated it too. As soon as we made the deal, Israel came out and dropped a load of bombs... We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f*** they’re doing."
Earlier today, Trump said that a ceasefire between Israel and Iran was now in place and asked both sides not to violate it, raising hopes of an end to the 12-day war even as deadly attacks were reported in both countries.
However, hours after this, there were reports of explosions in Israel and its Defence Minister ordered the country's military to respond forcefully to what he said was Iran’s violation of a ceasefire with Israel.
Trump responding to this said, "Israel, as soon as we made the deal, they came out and dropped a load of bombs the likes of which I have never seen before. The biggest load that we have seen."
He also later took to Truth Social asking Israel no to drop bombs. "If you do it, it is a major violation. Bring your pilots home, now," Trump posted.
