Iran launches missiles at central and north Israel as the Israeli military carries out further strikes in Iran.

Israel’s attack on Iran was long in the making – the result of years of meticulous planning by Israel and days of high-stakes talks between Tel Aviv and Washington, officials told CNN.

President Donald Trump is urging Iran to make a nuclear deal now that Israel has launched strikes against the country.

In the wake of a series of strikes by Israel on Iran's nuclear sites, potentially pushing the Middle East to the brink of an all-out conflict, President Donald Trump told ABC News he thought the attacks had been "excellent" and suggested there was "more to come."

President Donald Trump's eventful week included securing a preliminary trade deal with China, deploying National Guard troops to Los Angeles, and responding to Israel's strikes on Iran.

They did not rule out a return to the negotiating track on Iran's nuclear program, a Kremlin spokesperson said.

The State Department told regional allies about Israel's plan to strike Iran, and indicated it wasn't a U.S. operation, four sources told CBS News.

Experts suggest the U.S. has a strategic opportunity to leverage Iran's weakened position for a nuclear deal after Israel's targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites.
