JERUSALEM, Israel – After days of attacks, U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are in Qatar, where President Trump said they would meet with Iranian officials. At the last minute, however, Qatari officials said they would not meet with Iranians.
Meanwhile, the Israeli military marked 1000 days since the October 7th, 2023, war with Hamas began. President Trump announced that Iran requested a meeting to be held in Doha following several days of fighting, sparked by Tehran’s attack on a vessel in the Strait of Hormuz. The president noted, “You know, oil prices are way down. We had $69 today. It was higher than that prior to the denuclearization of the Iran fight that we have, which we’re doing very well.”
