Trump has now told Fox News that he has spoken directly with Iranian officials, and they asked him to stop the U.S. bombing, APA reports citing CNN.
He said U.S. fighter jets were operating over Iran.
Trump told Fox that the bombing would stop shortly, but he said he would leave open the option for more strikes.
Iran's state media has now issued a report denying Trump's comment that he has spoken directly to Iranian officials who asked him to stop the new U.S. attacks.
It cited an unnamed senior Iranian official as saying: "Trump's false claim that Iranian officials contacted him is a cover to evade war with Iran."
