'I told them what to do': Trump claims he gave Iran an 'ultimatum' before attack

Donald Trump says he gave Iran an "ultimatum" before Israel launched its blistering assault that killed some Iranian military leaders.

Iran has sworn to offer a counter-attack, but the president early on Friday morning said Iran was to blame for what happened.

In a follow-up statement, Trump added details about a purported ultimatum to Iran.

"Two months ago I gave Iran a 60 day ultimatum to 'make a deal,'" the president claimed. "They should have done it!"

He added:

"Today is day 61. I told them what to do, but they just couldn’t get there. Now they have, perhaps, a second chance!"
