President Donald Trump on Sunday issued a stark warning to Iran against retaliating on U.S. targets in the Middle East while also predicting Israel and Iran would “soon” make a deal to end their escalating conflict.

President Donald Trump warned that "it's possible" that the United States "could get involved" in the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict if it continues to escalate during an exclusive interview with ABC News' Rachel Scott on Sunday (June 15).

In the wake of a series of strikes by Israel on Iran's nuclear sites, potentially pushing the Middle East to the brink of an all-out conflict, President Donald Trump told ABC News he thought the attacks had been "excellent" and suggested there was "more to come."

The conflict between Israel and Iran - once played out in a series of proxy wars - has escalated. On Friday morning, explosions hit Tehran as Israel carried out a major attack on its nuclear capabilities. Iran threatened "severe punishment" and quickly retaliated with a wave of missiles.
