U.S. President Donald J. Trump told the press today that Gulf leaders from the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar asked him to postpone strikes for two or three days, and he agreed. The announcement follows an earlier statement that the resumption of combat operations against Iran would be postponed.
