US President Donald Trump says he calls off a planned new strike against Iran after receiving requests from Persian Gulf allies for additional time to pursue diplomacy. Bloomberg reports that Trump made the decision following appeals from the leaders of Gulf states, including Saudi Arabia, who ask for more time rather than immediate military action. Bloomberg also says the planned action was set for Tuesday, but is delayed after the outreach. NDTV reports that Trump’s announcement comes as he had earlier warned that the situation was approaching a deadline for Iran to reach a deal, or fighting would resume after a fragile ceasefire. Across the coverage, the central point is that diplomacy is given additional time after the Gulf states intervene diplomatically with Trump. The reports do not provide further operational details about what the United States had planned, nor do they specify when any next strike decision will be made. The decision is presented as a change in timing tied to the allies’ request to extend efforts toward a diplomatic resolution.
