Trump Denies Immediate Iran Strike Plan as Netanyahu Hints at Imminent Action

President Donald Trump stated that the United States has no immediate plans to strike Iran, though crude oil markets face ongoing volatility as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu signaled possible military action later this week. The development follows unverified claims that Trump was considering striking Iran's Pickaxe Mountain nuclear site. While US forces recently launched limited strikes near the Strait of Hormuz after Iranian missile fire, Qatar-mediated diplomatic negotiations are pursuing a deal to end Iranian maritime attacks in exchange for lifting the US port blockade.
