'Macron always gets it wrong': Trump slams French Prez, reveals reason behind leaving G7 abruptly
US President Donald Trump on Tuesday dismissed French President Emmanuel Macron's claim that he was returning to Washington to work on a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, adding that French leader was "wrong" in how he described the exit. "Publicity seeking President Emmanuel Macron, of France, mistakenly said that I left the G7 Summit, in Canada, to go back to DC to work on a "ceasefire" between Israel and Iran. Wrong! He has no idea why I am now on my way to Washington, but it certainly has nothing to do with a Cease Fire. Much bigger than that. Whether purposely or not, Emmanuel always gets it wrong. stay tuned!" the US president said in a post on his Truth Social platform.

Iran Preparing Missiles For Potential Strikes On US Military Bases In Middle East: Report
Last Updated: Israel-Iran Conflict: In response to the potential escalation, the US military has deployed approximately three dozen aerial refueling aircraft to Europe. Iran has positioned missiles and military equipment in preparation for possible retaliatory strikes on US military bases in the Middle East, in the event that the United States directly joins Israel's military campaign against Tehran, the New York Times reported citing American officials familiar with classified intelligence assessments. The preparations, which include short and medium range missiles, intensified amid growing concerns in Washington that the conflict between Israel and Iran could spiral into a regional war. As per the report, multiple US officials warned that an American strike on critical Iranian infrastructure- particularly the underground Fordo nuclear facility- could trigger a rapid and forceful response from Iran and its regional allies. Two senior Iranian officials confirmed that Tehran would retaliate against US military installations- starting with those in Iraq- if Washington becomes militarily involved, the report claimed, adding that American intelligence also pointed to coordinated threats from Iran-aligned forces. Officials believe the Houthi militia in Yemen would likely resume attacks on shipping routes in the Red Sea, while Iranian-backed militias in Syria and Iraq could attempt to strike US personnel and installations. Another tactic under consideration by Tehran, officials said, could involve mining the Strait of Hormuz- a strategic chokepoint through which a significant portion of the world's oil supply passes. The move could risk disrupting global energy markets.
