Trump Urges Peace Amid Rising Tensions After Iranian Missile Strike
President Trump calls for peace following an Iranian missile attack on a U.S. military base in Qatar, emphasizing restraint and hopes for regional harmony.

President Trump, noting that Iran had offered advance warning, expressed gratitude for their restraint and labeled the counterattack a "weak response." This raised hopes for peaceful resolutions in the region after avoiding significant casualties.
The President posted on social media, celebrating the absence of harm to U.S. forces, and called for further peace discussions, even urging Israel to consider the same. The missile strike followed U.S. operations deploying stealth bombers and submarines to strike Iranian nuclear sites, which officials reported had incurred notable damage. Despite this, military experts continue to emphasize the volatility of the situation, confirming ongoing evaluations of both military capabilities and strategic responses in this ongoing conflict.
