Donald Trump said in a post on his social media account on Saturday that Iran has "apologized and surrendered" to its neighbors in the Middle East after what he called "relentless military pressure" from the US and Israel.

Trump said in the statement on Truth Social that Iran promised it "will not shoot at them anymore.” He also said that joint U.S. and Israeli military actions forced Tehran to back down. Trump also discussed the possibility of taking more aggressive military action against Iran, saying that more targets were under "serious consideration" because of what he called Iran's "bad behavior."
