"We, of course, support Israel, obviously, and support it in a way that no one has ever supported it. Iran should have listened to me when I said - you know, I gave them, I don't know if you know, but I gave them a 60-day warning, and today is the 61st day," Trump said.
He stated that now Iran should sit down at the negotiating table and make a deal before it is too late.
"It will be too late for them. You know, the people I dealt with are dead, the hardliners," Trump added.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also noted earlier that the strike on Iran was "very successful". "We struck the top command, we struck the scientists who are developing nuclear weapons, we struck the nuclear facilities," - said Netanyahu, who is quoted by Israeli media.
A spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said that the Israeli attack caused "superficial damage" to one of the main uranium enrichment facilities.
"The organization has no assessment of the damage caused to Natanz, but most of it is on the surface. Natanz's enrichment facilities are underground," - said the spokesman, who is quoted by CNN.
At the same time, Israeli army representative Brigadier General Effie Defrin said that the main Iranian nuclear energy enrichment facility in Natanz suffered "significant damage", Reuters writes.
Also, the network showed the consequences of the defeat of key Iranian facilities, in particular the nuclear facility in Natanz.
