    On Monday evening, June 18, CNN reported, citing an Israeli source and a knowledgeable American official, that Israel was preparing for a large-scale attack on Tehran, but Donald Trump, the President of the United States, urged Benjamin Netanyahu in a phone call to refrain from further retaliatory strikes.

    According to the Israeli source, Trump asked Netanyahu during this call to limit Israel's response in order to prevent escalating tensions.

    The report stated that Netanyahu resisted Trump's request during the first call, which took place on Sunday evening U.S. time, insisting that Israel must respond to Iran's attacks.

    Despite Trump's warning in the Sunday night conversation, the Israeli military targeted some sites in Iran, including an important petrochemical complex.

    The network also noted that the tone of recent conversations between Trump and Netanyahu has not been as harsh as the calls from the previous week. According to CNN, tensions between the two sides had escalated to the point where Trump had spoken sharply to the Israeli Prime Minister during last week's calls.

    CENTCOM: U.S. Forces Halted a Violating Oil Tanker in the Gulf of Oman

    Post from the United States Central Command account, machine translation:
    Tampa, Florida — U.S. forces disabled an empty oil tanker in the Gulf of Oman on June 8 after the vessel attempted to move toward an Iranian port, violating the ongoing blockade against Iran.

    The United States Central Command, CENTCOM, disabled the M/T Marivex tanker flying the Palauan flag while it was heading toward Iran in international waters of the Gulf of Oman. An F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jet from the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) fired precision munitions at the engineering and navigation sections of the ship after the crew refused to comply with U.S. forces' orders. The Marivex is no longer heading toward Iran.

    Since the blockade began on April 13, CENTCOM forces have disabled seven violating vessels, redirected 134 compliant ships, and allowed 42 humanitarian aid-carrying vessels to pass.

    An American official on Monday, June 8, 2026, rejected statements made by the Israeli army regarding the United States' involvement in intercepting ballistic missiles fired from the Islamic Republic towards Israel. According to CNN, this American official stated that the U.S. military did not intercept any of the Iranian missiles that were fired towards Israel early on Monday. This stance comes at a time when, in previous rounds of conflict between Iran and Israel, the U.S. participated in intercepting some missiles fired towards Israel using its defense systems.

    The Prime Minister of Israel on Monday, June 18, referred to the cessation of retaliatory attacks between Israel and Iran, stating, "The shelling has stopped, but if the terrorist regime (Iran) makes a mistake, we will respond severely." Benjamin Netanyahu, in his first video message following the recent wave of attacks between Iran and Israel, added, "Iran and Hezbollah are weaker than ever, and we are stronger than ever."

    According to him, "Iran and Hezbollah tried to impose a new equation on us that is intolerable and unacceptable to us. They thought they could attack Israel from the territory of Lebanon and from Iran, and we would remain silent. That did not happen and will not happen, not while I am the leader."

    The Prime Minister of Israel emphasized, "We will attack, we will respond with strength. We will continue to destroy all their terrorist infrastructure in southern Lebanon, and we will restore security to the north. If we had not acted in a timely and powerful manner, we would not be here today."

    Netanyahu also stated that Iran will not acquire nuclear weapons.

    Mohammad Baqer Zolqadr, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of the Islamic Republic of Iran, warned in a message published on Tuesday, June 8, that if the actions of the United States and Israel are repeated, the region will face widespread consequences.

    Zolqadr wrote in this message: "Look for credible threats from somewhere other than Washington and Tel Aviv." He added: "If the evil Zionist-American coalition makes another misstep, the region will become hell for them."

    In another part of this message, the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council claimed that the Islamic Republic, during "forty-seven years and one hundred days of resistance," has changed the security equations of the world from the battlefield to the realm of politics and diplomacy.

    This message was published after the Central Headquarters of Khatam al-Anbiya announced that the operations of the armed forces of the Islamic Republic against Israel had ended. Israeli official media also reported that the country had halted its attacks on Iran at the request of Donald Trump.

    "Ismail Baqai," the spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic, in his first press conference following Iran's attacks on Israel, stated that the events of the past hours will exacerbate the existing distrust between Tehran and Washington.

    Baqai mentioned in his press conference that the exchange of messages between Iran and the U.S. has so far taken place in an atmosphere filled with distrust, and according to him, the ceasefire has been "continuously and repeatedly" violated by the other side. He emphasized that the Islamic Republic will take action whenever it deems necessary to defend the "security of the country."

    The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also held the U.S. responsible for the recent developments in the region, stating that Israel does not take action without coordination with Washington. According to him, the U.S. State Department considers support for Israel as the main reason for the war against Iran, and the Islamic Republic is aware of the complete cooperation and coordination of the U.S. Central Command, CENTCOM, with Israel in defensive and offensive areas.

    Baqai referred to the ceasefire agreement of April 8 and held the U.S. responsible for any violations of it, stating that the consequences of escalating tensions in the region will fall on Washington.

    He also criticized "Rafael Grossi," the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, stating that if a resolution against Iran is passed in the Agency's Board of Governors, Tehran will respond "appropriately."
