This morning, after the biggest attack since the opening weeks of the war, Iran and Israel are holding their fire and
President Trump is hoping to get peace talks back on track.
>> We have uh ongoing negotiations in Iran and with Iran and that that hasn't stopped and we could have at least an idea by one or two days from
now. But I think it's going well.
The fierce missile attacks between Israel and Iran had tested the ceasefire and threatened to push the Middle East back into a full-blown war.
After Iran fired a barrage of missiles at Israel over the weekend, the president tried to convince Israel not to strike back, telling Axios, "I'm calling Netanyahu right now and telling him not to attack Iran in response."
But the Israeli prime minister defied Trump, firing back at Iran anyway.
Overnight, Trump telling reporters he didn't tell Netanyahu not to strike back.
>> No, I said do what's right, but I want you to stop as quickly as you can because they have to stop.
>> Both sides now pausing their attacks,
but tension remains high.
US forces firing on an oil tank are said to be attempting to cross the naval blockade.
Here you can see smoke pouring from the ship as a helicopter hovers above, lifting sailors to safety.
For weeks, the president has claimed they're close to a deal, though there have been no public signs of progress.
And Iran and Israel have warned they're ready to resume fighting.
Iran's top negotiators saying, quote, "We are going to fight at our own time and negotiate at our own time," adding, "We are not afraid of severing negotiations."
And Prime Minister Netanyahu issuing this warning.
If the terrorist regime and Iran makes the mistake and attacks us again, he says we will respond forcefully.
>> And these strikes between Israel and Iran exposed that while the US and Israel started this war together, they are not always in lock step.
And that is a dynamic that certainly could test efforts to end this war going forward.
Rebecca,
>> yeah, and certainly testing the oil markets, which are trending lower this morning as well.
Mary, thank you.
