Trump not happy with Israel's South Pars gas field attack
WORLD: US President Donald Trump Thursday accused Israel of "violently lashing out" by attacking Iran's South Pars gas field marking a serious escalation in the US-Israeli conflict. The attack elevated oil prices and led Iran to threaten counterstrikes against Gulf oil and gas targets along with missile assaults on Qatar and Saudi Arabia.
While Trump claimed the US had no prior knowledge of Israel's actions, reports suggested his approval. The situation has intensified global energy supply disruptions.
Meanwhile, Trump is contemplating the deployment of additional US troops to the Middle East amid rising tensions.
