President Donald Trump convened a National Security Council meeting Tuesday in the White House Situation Room to discuss the Israel-Iran conflict. The meeting took place after President Trump called for Iran’s “unconditional surrender.”

US officials insist that, so far, Washington has not taken part in Israel’s attacks, but the President is considering all options.
