The helicopter gunship pilots were rescued Monday \u2013 and President Trump told reporters on the ground at JFK Airport they were \u201cfine.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody injured. We are going to issue a report tomorrow,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not clear if the Apache was shot down or experienced a mechanical issue, the New York Times reported.<\/p>\n

Trump told reporters on the tarmac that the US and Iran are close to agreeing a peace deal \u2013 more than three months after the US-Israel attacks on Tehran started.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we go and bomb, which we can do very easily if we want, and we spend another two or three weeks bombing, they\u2019ll have nothing left whatsoever,\u201d Trump, who was in New York watching the New York Knicks lose to the San Antonio Spurs in Game 3 of the NBA Finals, said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut you won\u2019t have the strait open for months,\u201d he said. \u201cIf we do the bombing, a lot of people are going to be killed. Who wants to do that? I don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

He told a tele-rally just hours before that the US will be able to declare \u201ctotal victory\u201d in two weeks.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re really going to win it over the next two weeks when we declare total victory. It will be a total victory and it will happen very soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s bullish comments come days after the most direct confrontation between Iran and Israel since the cease-fire came into force in April.<\/p>\n

Tehran had fired missiles towards Israeli territory late on Sunday, calling the strikes retaliation for attacks on the Iranian-backed Hezbollah militia on the outskirts of Beirut.<\/p>\n

Israel then hit Iranian air defence systems and a petrochemical plant that it said was used to produce ballistic missiles. <\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it retaliated with a strike aimed at a similar Israeli plant in the city \u200cof Haifa.<\/p>\n

Trump called on the Middle Eastern enemies to lay down the weapons, ordering the two countries to \u201cstop shooting.\u201d<\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s joint military command then said it was halting offensive operations against Israel \u2014 but issued a blistering warning to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The joint command warned that if Israel or its allies carried out any further \u201caggression and hostile acts,\u201d including against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, \u201cmuch more severe and crushing measures than before will follow.\u201d<\/p>\n
