President Donald Trump did not warn key allies before launching a major military operation in Iran, leaving them scrambling to deal with the fallout as Iran retaliated against countries aligned with the U.S.
One of the administration’s closest partners in Europe, the far-right government of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, only learned of the attack on Iran as it was happening, Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini said Saturday morning, according to Italian daily La Repubblica.
Soon after American and Israeli forces unleashed a series of attacks on regime targets in the Iranian capital of Tehran, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps responded with what it called a “first wave” of missile and drone attacks against Israel.
