Israel's Operation Rising Lion is more extensive and ambitious than anything that has come before, including the missile exchanges it had with Iran last year

Trump claimed that the Israeli attack was launched after Tehran ignored a 60-day ultimatum from him to reach a deal to limit its nuclear program, the first time such a deadline has been mentioned.

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."
