**Iranian Missile Strikes Israeli Hospital Amid Trump's Delayed Military Decision**
**President Trump indicates two-week timeline for potential U.S. military involvement in escalating Iran-Israel conflict.**
An Iranian missile targeted the Soroka Medical Center in southern Israel on Thursday, resulting in extensive damage and injuring multiple patients. This attack comes as President Trump announced he would decide "within the next two weeks" on the potential for U.S. military intervention in Israel’s current offensive against Iran. The White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, conveyed Mr. Trump's statement in a press briefing.
The American president's shift in stance provides a window for further diplomatic negotiations aimed at mitigating the conflict that has escalated since Israel initiated airstrikes on Iran, which began on Friday, targeting sites in Tehran and other major cities. In retaliation, Iran has launched missile and drone attacks on significant Israeli urban centers including Tel Aviv.
As European diplomats prepare for a meeting with Iranian representatives in Geneva on Friday, the gathering seeks to address the ongoing hostilities. However, officials from both the U.S. and Israel are not expected to participate, highlighting a cautious approach to direct involvement in these discussions. Esmail Baghaei, the Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson, indicated that the dialogues would cover both the nuclear issue and recent regional developments.
Press secretary Leavitt emphasized that any potential agreement with Iran must encompass stringent restrictions on uranium enrichment and nuclear weapon development—key concerns consistently voiced by President Trump.
