President Donald Trump on Sunday issued a stark warning to Iran against retaliating on U.S. targets in the Middle East while also predicting Israel and Iran would “soon” make a deal to end their escalating conflict.

"The full strength and might of the U.S. Armed Forces will come down on you at levels never seen before," Trump warned.

The statement follows Israel’s escalation of military actions in Iran, including a strike on the Iranian defence ministry’s headquarters in Tehran and an assault on the South Pars natural gas facility in Bushehr Province, one of the largest of its kind globally.

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."
