The US military was three hours away from striking Iran when US President Donald Trump announced that a deal with Tehran had been agreed upon and canceled a planned attack, NBC reported on Thursday, citing two US officials familiar with the matter.

According to the officials, the military had received orders from Trump to attack Iran Thursday night, and that US Navy ships had already adjusted their operations and readied munitions for the strikes when they were called off.
