In a post on Truth Social, Trump said that "serious negotiations" are now taking place but warned that the US is prepared to "go forward with a full, large scale assault" of Iran if a deal is not reached.

Key takeaways:

Have been asked by Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and United Arab Emirates to hold off on our planned military attack of Islamic Republic of Iran.
Attack was scheduled for tomorrow.
We will not be doing scheduled attack of Iran tomorrow.
Have instructed military to be ready for full, large scale assault of Iran on a moment's notice, in event that acceptable deal is not reached.”
