00:00As tensions escalate in the Middle East, former U.S. President Donald Trump held late-night calls
00:06with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his National Security Council to discuss
00:11next steps amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. Trump, who has spoken with
00:16Netanyahu almost daily since the conflict began, said he's demanding Iran's full surrender and is
00:22currently holding off on more aggressive actions. While no final decision has been made,
00:27U.S. officials confirmed military preparations are underway. Fighter jets, refueling aircraft,
00:34and two aircraft carriers are heading to the region. The U.S. has also placed over 40,000 troops
00:39on high alert and temporarily closed its embassy in Jerusalem due to safety concerns. Sources say
00:46Washington is considering supporting Israel with precision strikes, including the use of
00:51stealth bombers and bunker-busting weapons on Iran's deeply buried nuclear sites. Iran, in response,
00:58has reportedly moved missile launchers and may target U.S. bases in the region if America joins the fight.
