Iran and 'Israel' exchange fire as US weighs direct military intervention
LIVE UPDATES | Iran and 'Israel' exchange fire as US weighs direct military intervention 1 'Israel' and Iran continue exchanging fire in aerial attacks since Friday morning, in a massive escalation that evolved into a direct confrontation between the longtime enemies after years of shadow wars. US President Donald Trump said Thursday he will decide whether to join 'Israel's' strikes on Iran within the next two weeks as there is still a "substantial" chance of negotiations to end the conflict. Iran and European diplomats said nuclear talks will be held in Geneva on Friday, bringing together top diplomats from Britain, France, Germany and the European Union as well as Tehran's Abbas Araghchi. The Wall Street Journal reported Trump has told aides he has approved attack plans but is holding off to see if Iran will give up its nuclear programme. Netanyahu told 'Israeli' public broadcaster Kan that 'Israel' had destroyed "more than half" of Iran's missile launchers since Friday. The death toll from Iranian missile strikes has risen to 25, after the body of a Ukrainian woman was recovered on Thursday from a building struck by an Iranian missile four days earlier in Bat Yam. Iran said Sunday that 'Israeli' strikes had killed at least 224 people, including military commanders, nuclear scientists and civilians. Authorities have not issued an updated toll since. Reports from observers estimate the Iranian death toll to be between 500-700. 23 minutes ago 'Very bad decision': US envoy warns Hezbollah of involvement in Iran-'Israel' war The US special envoy for Syria Tom Barrack warned Lebanese group Hezbollah on Thursday against getting involved in the war between its main backer Iran and 'Israel'. Barrack, who is also the US ambassador to Turkey, is on his first visit to Beirut, where he met top Lebanese officials including parliament speaker Nabih Berri, an ally of Hezbollah. "I can say on behalf of President (Donald) Trump... that would be a very, very, very bad decision," Barrack said after his meeting with Berri, responding to a question on what the US position would be on any involvement by Hezbollah in the war. In a statement, Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem said the group will "act as we see fit". "Tyrannical America and criminal Israel will not be able to subjugate the Iranian people and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps," Qassem said. Hezbollah, he added, still had "the responsibility to stand by Iran and provide it with all forms of support that contribute to putting an end to this tyranny and oppression". Hezbollah suffered devastating losses in its war against 'Israel' last year, which ended with a ceasefire agreement in November. 36 minutes ago WHO chief says 'attacks on health' in Iran-'Israel' conflict appalling The WHO's leader on Thursday denounced attacks on health facilities in the Iran-'Israel' war as "appalling", urging all sides to protect hospital buildings, staff and patients.
