Iran cancelled planned missile strikes on Israel after US President Donald Trump intervened, The New York Times reports, citing Iranian officials.
The newspaper said Iranian power circles had debated whether Tehran should retaliate for Israel’s Sunday strike on Beirut’s southern suburbs, known as Dahiyeh.
Some in Iran’s leadership believed a missile attack would serve Israel’s interests by derailing Tehran’s agreement with Washington, the officials reportedly said.
