President Trump warned Iran of an unprecedented U.S. military response if attacked and denied any U.S. involvement in Israel’s recent strike on Iran. In a post on Truth Social, he vowed that any attack on U.S. forces or territory would trigger a military response “at levels never seen before.” His message followed a week of rising violence between Iran and Israel. Iran responded to Israel’s Operation “Rising Lion” with deadly force, while its foreign minister urged the U.S. to condemn Israel’s attacks on its nuclear sites. Rising Middle East tensions and Israel’s attack on Iran have complicated U.S. mediation efforts, with Trump’s warning signaling a firm defense stance that could shift regional dynamics.
