Trump denies US involvement in Iran strike, warns of military response if attacked

US President Donald Trump weighed in on the escalating conflict between Iran and Israel on Sunday, denying any American involvement in the recent strike on Iranian territory and warning Tehran of "levels never seen before" military retaliation if the US is attacked.

“The US had nothing to do with the attack on Iran, tonight,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social account. “If we are attacked in any way, shape or form by Iran, the full strength and might of the US Armed Forces will come down on you at levels never seen before.”

The post comes amid rising tensions in the Middle East, after Israel launched a large-scale offensive targeting Iran’s Defense Ministry headquarters and key energy facilities, prompting deadly retaliatory strikes by Tehran on Israeli cities.

“We can easily get a deal done between Iran and Israel, and end this bloody conflict!!!” Trump concluded.
