Video shows Trump visibly angry and frustrated with Israel after his ceasefire collapses: “What the f**k they doing?”
President Donald Trump lashed out at both Iran and Israel on Tuesday morning, accusing them of breaking a ceasefire deal just hours after he triumphantly declared it had taken effect.
“You basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f— they’re doing! Do you understand that?” he told reporters on his way to the NATO summit in The Hague.
The president had only just announced that a ceasefire had been reached between the two nations following nearly two weeks of escalating missile and air strikes. But the situation unraveled quickly. After Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly accepted Trump’s ceasefire plan, Israel’s military reported that a missile had been launched from Iranian territory. The country vowed immediate retaliation.
While Iran denied any such strike, it issued a stern warning: any renewed aggression from Israel would be met with a “decisive and regretful response.”
Trump, visibly furious outside the White House, accused the media of being “gutless” and “losers” and expressed open frustration with both countries, though his ire leaned more heavily toward Israel. “I’m really unhappy if Israel is going out this morning because [of] the one rocket that didn’t land, that was shot perhaps by mistake,” he said. He added that after his remarks, he planned to “see if [he] could stop it.”
Shortly afterward, Trump posted optimistically on Truth Social, “ISRAEL is not going to attack Iran. All planes will turn around and head home, while doing a friendly ‘Plane Wave’ to Iran. Nobody will be hurt, the Ceasefire is in effect!” In another earlier post, he had issued a direct warning: “ISRAEL. DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS. IF YOU DO IT IS A MAJOR VIOLATION. BRING YOUR PILOTS HOME, NOW!”
Trump says he is “not happy” with Israel, urging the Jewish state not to go ahead with a retaliatory missile strike against Iran.
Before Trump’s online assurances, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz had already given orders for “high-intensity strikes against regime targets in the heart of Tehran,” citing Iran’s alleged breach of the agreement. The Israeli military’s chief of staff, Maj. Gen. Eyal Zamir, echoed this stance, stating on X that Israel would “strike with force.”
The rapid breakdown of the ceasefire came in stark contrast to the upbeat tone Trump used when first announcing the truce. “I knew the time was NOW,” he had written. “The World, and the Middle East, are the real WINNERS! Both Nations will see tremendous LOVE, PEACE, AND PROSPERITY in their futures.”
Trump implied that his decision to strike Iranian nuclear facilities over the weekend was what forced both sides to the negotiating table. Using bunker-buster bombs, the U.S. had reportedly hit three nuclear sites—deep underground complexes that few other weapons could reach.
Following the attack, Trump declared Iran’s nuclear ambitions had been “totally obliterated.” Yet reports from The New York Times noted growing concern that Iran may have already transferred enriched uranium to other undisclosed locations before the strikes.
