Israel reportedly planned a massive attack wave on Iran for violating the ceasefire and hitting Israel with missiles - until Trump stopped it and forced it to become a symbolic strike, a "friendly wave" as he put it, according to Kann News.

Per the report, the planes were in the air, the armaments locked in, with a clear goal - a strike killing hundreds on the Iranian side. Three minutes before the strike, command HQ received a clear, unequivocal order: stop it all now.

The planes remained in the air for six minutes, vulnerable over Iranian skies, until Trump's demand that the strike not happen led to a symbolic strike on one radar station and everyone returning home with the armaments intact.
