President Trump said discussions with Iran would take place next week as top administration officials forcefully pushed back on questions about the effectiveness of U.S. airstrikes.
Iran’s president signaled that his country would be open to talks about its nuclear ambitions. A preliminary classified U.S. report concluded that American airstrikes had not fully destroyed Iranian nuclear sites, as President Trump has claimed.
President Trump did not give many details about the deal. Israel did not immediately comment, and Iran, which said it had agreed to the halt, sent a new wave of missiles, killing at least four people.
In interviews, Trump supporters expressed a range of emotions — anger, wariness and avid support. But the dominant theme? Anxiety about what comes next.

Residents in central Tehran said they could see and hear heavy strikes, while Israel said it was defending itself from an attack. Earlier, President Trump suggested that a new government could take over in Tehran.
After hitting Iran’s most heavily fortified nuclear installation, President Trump warned of more strikes “if peace does not come quickly.” Iranian ballistic missiles wounded at least 10 in Israel, officials said.
President Trump has said there is little he could do to stop the Israeli attacks. A European diplomatic effort to rein in the hostilities ended without a breakthrough on Friday.
European officials, who have been effectively sidelined in the war between Israel and Iran, will try to exert limited leverage in a meeting with Iranian officials on Friday in Geneva.
