According to an Arab diplomat familiar with the matter, several Middle Eastern allies have urged the Trump administration to delay strikes against Iran. The diplomat says Egypt, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar raised concerns that U.S. military intervention could destabilize the region and impact the global economy. This happened in the last 48 hours.

However, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Thursday that “all options remain on the table” for Trump regarding Iran.
