President Donald Trump is calling for an immediate halt to hostilities between Israel and Iran after a fresh missile exchange threatened to derail a fragile ceasefire that has held since April.

Trump described the strikes as 'unhelpful' and is calling for calm between the two nations, even saying he's going to call Benjamin Netanyahu and tell him not to strike back.

The Islamic Republic said it fired missiles into Israel for continuing to attack Lebanon in a campaign Trump said was not coordinated with the U.S.
