Israel-Iran live: Trump swears live on camera as he rages at Israel and Iran
Trump: Israel and Iran 'don't know what the f*** they're doing'
In extraordinary comments, Donald Trump tells reporters Israel and Iran "don't know what the f*** they're doing" as he leaves the White House for the NATO summit.
"We have to have Israel to calm down because they went on a mission this morning," he says.
"I've got to get Israel to calm down."
On reports that both Israel and Iran violated the ceasefire, Trump says: "I'm not sure they did it intentionally. They couldn't rein people back.
"I don't like the fact that Israel went out this morning, and I'm going to see if I can stop it.
"As soon as I get away from you, I'm going to see if I can stop it."
"As soon as we made the deal, they came out and they dropped a load of bombs," he adds.
"The likes of which I've never seen before. The biggest load that we've seen. I'm not happy with Israel.
"We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the f*** they're doing."

Israel's daring, dazzling, dangerous victory
THERE ARE immutable rules to Middle Eastern wars that not even Donald Trump can change. Once a ceasefire is announced, both sides rush to land one more blow. After the truce starts they sneak in a final volley. For ten hours after the president announced a ceasefire ending the 12-day Iran-Israel war, there were tit-for-tat strikes. By the time he got up on June 24th, Mr Trump had had enough, declaring on the White House lawn, 'they don't know what the fuck they're doing!' He then called Binyamin Netanyahu and read the riot act. Israel's jets turned back.

Report suggests US strikes only set back Iran's nuclear programme by months
The early intelligence report issued by the Defence Intelligence Agency on Monday contradicts statements from Mr Trump and Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the status of Iran's nuclear facilities. According to people familiar with the situation, the report found that while the Saturday strikes at the Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear sites did significant damage, they were not totally destroyed. The White House strongly pushed back on the assessment, calling it 'flat-out wrong'. 'The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump, and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran's nuclear programme,' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement. 'Everyone knows what happens when you drop 14 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.' The CIA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence declined to comment on the DIA assessment. ODNI coordinates the work of the nation's 18 intelligence agencies, including the DIA, which is the intelligence arm of the Defence Department, responsible for producing intelligence on foreign militaries and the capabilities of adversaries. The intelligence assessment was first reported by CNN on Tuesday.
