US President Donald Trump on Sunday threatened to strike Iran if it did not “immediately stop their highly paid PROXIES in Lebanon from causing trouble,” as peace talks started in Switzerland.
Trump was referring to Hezbollah, which joined the Middle East war with attacks on Israel. Clashes in recent days between the two have threatened to derail the US-Iran preliminary peace deal.
“If they don’t, we’ll hit Iran very hard again, just like we did last week, only harder!!!” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.
