Trump says he'll decide on US attacks on Iran within two weeks
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said any decision on potential US involvement would be made within two weeks as the Iran-Israel air war entered its second week on Friday.Israeli air attacks have killed 639 people in Iran, said the Human Rights Activists News Agency. Those killed include the military's top echelon and nuclear scientists. Israel has said at least two dozen Israeli civilians have died in Iranian missile attacks. The death toll from either side could not be independently verified.Israel has targeted nuclear sites and missile capabilities, but also has sought to shatter the government of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, according to Western and regional officials."Are we targeting the downfall of the regime? That may be a result, but it's up to the...

Europe partly to blame for Iran-Israel conflict, Iran's UN ambassador says
GENEVA — Iran's ambassador and permanent representative to the United Nations in Geneva has said diplomacy still have a chance if Israel stops its strikes but warned that Iran would target the United States if it chooses to come into the conflict."We believe that the minimum thing Europeans can do is to very explicitly condemn Israel and stop their support for Israel," Ali Bahraini said in an interview for Euronews.Bahraini said Europe's reluctance to condemn Israel's aggression and its inability to keep the nuclear deal (JCPOA) afloat have all contributed to the current intensifying hostilities between Iran and Israel, now in their seventh day."The impunity which has been given to Israel is something which encourages that entity to continue committing new...

Trump’s new two-week negotiating window sets off scramble to restart stalled Iran talks
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s decision to open a two-week negotiating window before deciding on striking Iran sets off an urgent effort to restart talks that had been deadlocked when Israel began its bombing campaign last week.The hope among Trump and his advisers is that Iran — under constant Israeli attack and having suffered losses to its missile arsenal — will relent on its hardline position and agree to terms it had previously rejected, including abandoning its enrichment of uranium, according to US officials.The deferred decision, which came after days of increasingly martial messages from the president suggesting he was preparing to order a strike, also gives Trump more time to weigh the potential consequences — including the chance it could drag the United States...

Chinese citizens flee Iran as conflict with Israel rages on
TEHRAN — Hundreds of Chinese workers, students and tourists have fled or been evacuated from Iran to neighboring countries as the conflict with Israel spirals.Masa Li, a 24-year-old Chinese citizen who has lived and worked in Tehran for the past few years, fled the city on Monday after three days of bombing.“At night, we took turns keeping watch. There were explosions every night, lasting until two or three o’clock in the morning,” she said, adding that she saw several strikes hitting the city from where she lived.On the final day, Li decided to flee with nine colleagues and friends. It took them more than 30 hours to reach a border crossing in Armenia — a drive stalled by repeated car breakdowns and frequent stops for questioning and phone checks by police and military...

US joining Israeli strikes would cause hell, says Iranian minister 
LONDON — The US joining Israeli strikes would cause "hell for the whole region", Iran's deputy foreign minister has told the BBC.Saeed Khatibzadeh said this is "not America's war" and if US President Donald Trump does get involved, he will always be remembered as "a president who entered a war he doesn't belong in".He said US involvement would turn the conflict into a "quagmire", continue aggression and delay an end to the "brutal atrocities".His comments came after the Soroka hospital in southern Israel was hit during an Iranian missile attack. Iranian state media reported that the strike targeted a military site next to the hospital, and not the facility itself.Israel's Ministry of Health said 71 people were injured...

Trump focused on avoiding wider conflict as he nears decision on US strikes in Iran
WASHINGTON — As President Donald Trump weighs whether to join Israel’s strikes on Iran — including using bunker-busting bombs to target nuclear facilities deep underground — a discussion is underway among his top officials over how the US can strike those targets without becoming embroiled in a full-scale war, sources familiar with the matter said.For Trump, trying to avoid prolonging the conflict that began last Thursday has become a top imperative. While he is receptive to arguments, including from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, that only the US can decisively end Iran’s nuclear ambitions, he is deeply wary of becoming bogged down in the type of foreign conflict he vowed to avoid, the sources said.Over the weekend, some US allies received word that the Trump...

US action against Iran would fuel 'broader conflict' in the Middle East, EU's Kaja Kallas warns
BRUSSELS — Potential military involvement by the United States in the wave of strikes between Israel and Iran would "definitely drag" the entire Middle East into a wider, more dangerous conflict, High Representative Kaja Kallas has said.Her warning came after Donald Trump openly suggested his country, a staunch backer of Israel, might take a hands-on approach to end the hostilities."We're not involved in it. It's possible we could get involved. But we are not at this moment involved," Trump told ABC News on Sunday. He later said the US would be "gloves off" if Iran were to "touch our troops".On Tuesday, Kallas made clear the European Union would not back America's armed intervention."When it comes to the United States getting...
