Israeli military says it will continue operations in line with Israeli government directives until told otherwise
Middle East crisis – live updates
The Israeli military said it had launched a new wave of strikes on Tehran, after Donald Trump signalled a pause in US attacks against energy infrastructure after what he said were talks with Iran.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said it would continue operations in line with Israeli government directives until told otherwise.
About 40 minutes after Trump said he had extended by five days his deadline to strike Iran’s power plants, describing talks with Tehran as “productive”, the IDF said on X it ‘‘has just begun another wave of strikes targeting infrastructure of the Iranian terror regime across Tehran”.
