Donald Trump has delayed a decision on whether to join Israeli attacks on Iran as Sir Keir Starmer continues to urge restraint in the Middle East.

Sir Keir Starmer’s spokesman called for restraint and a return to diplomacy after the US president threatened to join Israeli strikes on Iran

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is facing a nightmare decision after Donald Trump approved plans for the US to join Israel's attacks on Iran. While the US president has not issued the final decision to go ahead,

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed revenge after a hospital was struck by an Iranian ballistic missile, as the world waited for news of whether President Donald Trump would commit U.S. forces to Israel's campaign against Iran's nuclear program.

Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel was "changing the face of the world" as its war with Iran entered its seventh day.

Israel has carried out attacks on Iran's nuclear facilities, alleging Tehran was getting close to obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Iran's progress toward having a nuclear weapon is central to the current conflict between Israel and Iran. Before launching recent attacks against Iran's nuclear sites, Israel said it had evidence Tehran was on the brink of building a nuclear weapon.
