Watch the moment President Trump swears as his frustrations about the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict spill out.
The President was infuriated after his ceasefire declaration was swiftly defied by both Israel and Iran who continued hostilities by firing ballistic missiles at each other once more.
Trump made clear that he is “not happy” with allies Israel after it dropped a flurry of ballistic missiles on Iran shortly after his announcement.
The country opted to press ahead with its offensive in response to a strike on an apartment in Beersheba, Northern Israel by Iran.

“I’m not happy with Israel”, he said.
“You don’t go out in the first hour and just drop everything you have on them.

“I’m not happy with Iran either. But I’m really not happy with how Israel went out this morning.
“We basically have two countries that have been fighting for so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f*** they’re doing.”

Despite his frustrations, Trump said the US has achieved its goal of ensuring Iran no longer has nuclear capabilities.
He said their capacities “are gone” and Tehran will never be able to rebuild its nuclear programme.
The President also took aim at US media groups like MSNBC and CNN for promoting what he claims is “fake news” with regard to Iran’s operations.
Iran has denied breaching the ceasefire agreement, while Israel’s military claimed it detected launches from the country earlier.
Defence minister Israel Katz added his country would respond “forcefully”.
Trump made it clear to reporters he is keen to ensure Israel “calms down”.
The President was speaking after attending the first day of the NATO summit in The Hague, Netherlands, where he convened with other world leaders including Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
Trump’s hopes of a triumphant summit were dashed when his declaration of a ceasefire was swiftly ignored by the warring Middle East factions.
The deal was broken by Trump and Qatar and announced in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
“Please do not violate it!” he urged both sides in a Truth Social post.
The Israeli Government said it had agreed to the proposal surely after it was brokered, while Iran added it would stop attacking if Israel did the same.
Branded “the 12 day war” by Trump, Iran and Israel look set to continue their conflict.
Two hours after Israel said it had agreed to the truce, its Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had intensified its missiles.
