US President Donald Trump said on 25 October that the United States would not launch a strike against Iran that day, following earlier remarks that had raised the possibility of an imminent attack.
The Associated Press and The National reported the later statement, which supersedes his suggestion on Saturday that an attack might take place on Sunday.
Trump continued to frame his broader choice as further military action or an agreement with Tehran. His earlier comments said Iran could avoid additional attacks through a deal, while questioning whether it would honour one.
He has presented preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons as his objective.
The latest statement rules out the immediate action he had floated for Sunday. It does not announce a peace agreement or remove the possibility of later escalation.
