The Daily Beast reports that although Trump claimed he had no knowledge of Israel’s strikes on Iran’s energy infrastructure, multiple sources in the U.S. and Israel indicate he personally approved the attack to pressure Tehran. Qatar protested the strikes and Iran warned of consequences, while global oil prices spiked.

Trump pledges no more Israeli strikes on Iran's South Pars gas field

President Trump said Israel will not attack Iran's main natural gas facility again after an Israeli strike on the South Pars gas field, a move coordinated with the White House. Iran retaliated with missile strikes on Qatar's Ras Laffan, and Trump warned that if Qatar's LNG is attacked again the U.S. could respond forcefully, while officials say the aim was to deter Iran from disrupting oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.
