Trump opposes further strikes on Iranian energy sites after Israel hits South Pars, WSJ reports

ReutersMar 18, 2026 9:32 PM

- U.S. President Donald Trump does not want any further strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure after Israel's attack on the South Pars gas field on Wednesday, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing U.S. officials.

Trump, who knew about the Israeli strike on South Pars in advance, supported it as a message to Tehran over its blocking of the Strait of Hormuz, and could again be open to targeting more Iranian energy facilities depending on Tehran's future actions in the waterway, the Journal said.

Reuters could not immediately verify the report.
