Trump: Israel won’t again strike Iranian gas field but US will if Qatari energy sites attacked

Qatar reports ‘extensive’ damage at its main LNG hub as Iran keeps up attacks on Gulf states * Kuwait announces arrest of 10 Hezbollah operatives for alleged plot to attack ‘vital installations’

US President Donald Trump says he will not allow another Israeli attack on Iran’s South Pars natural gas field, after the IDF struck the key energy site on Wednesday.

Trump writes on Truth Social that Israel “violently lashed out” at South Pars “out of anger for what has taken place in the Middle East,” while insisting that only “a relatively small section” of the oil field has been hit.

The US president claims that the US “knew nothing about this particular attack.”
