The announcement came after Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman spoke directly with Trump to express concerns about his plans for extensive new strikes against Iran, according to multiple US officials and sources with knowledge of the conversation.
The decision to hold off on military action followed warnings from Iran's top diplomat, who cautioned of a decisive response to any US-Israeli aggression.
