Trump calls for Iran's ‘unconditional surrender', says he knows exactly where Khamanei is hiding
President Trump met with his national security team in the White House Situation Room for around one hour and 20 minutes on Tuesday to make decisions about U.S. policy towards the war between Israel and Iran. Ahead of the meeting, three U.S. officials said Trump was seriously considering joining the war and launching a U.S. strike against Iran's nuclear facilities, especially its underground uranium enrichment facility in Fordow. Trump returned early from the G7 summit to focus on Iran, telling reporters on Air Force One overnight that he wasn't interested in a 'ceasefire' but a 'real end' to the war and to Iran's nuclear program. Amid growing signs that the U.S. could strike Iran, Vice President J.D. Vance pushed back against criticism from prominent MAGA voices about Trump getting involved in the war. Trump himself signaled his thinking in a series of belligerent posts on Truth Social ahead of the Situation Room meeting.

Kremlin says it sees that Israel does not want mediation efforts with Iran amid 'galloping escalation'
The Kremlin said on Tuesday that it saw that Israel did not want mediation efforts over its conflict with Iran, now in its fifth day amid what Moscow said was "galloping escalation." Israel launched its air war with a surprise attack last week that has killed nearly the entire top echelon of Iran's military commanders and its leading nuclear scientists. Iran has responded with a barrage of strikes on Israeli cities. In a call with reporters, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov called on both sides to exercise "maximum restraint." "The situation is continuing to escalate rapidly. The level of unpredictability is absolute," he said. Peskov said that Russia's offer to mediate between the warring sides if necessary still stood, but that it saw Israel was for now not interested in seeking a peaceful solution.
