Israel launches further strikes on Iran, president says no halt to nuclear activities

JERUSALEM/WASHINGTON: The second week of the Israel-Iran war started Saturday with a renewed round of strikes targeting an Iranian nuclear research facility near Isfahan.

Talks in Geneva on Friday between European foreign ministers and Iran’s top diplomat failed to produce a breakthrough.

US President Donald Trump continued to weigh his country’s military involvement as concerns spiked over potential strikes on Iranian nuclear reactors.

Still, European officials expressed hope for future negotiations.
