Live updates: Trump says 'very good' Iran talks, hints at 'total resolution'

President Donald Trump in a social media post late Wednesday night, called for Israel to not attack the South Pars Gas Field unless Iran again attacks Qatar's liquefied national gas facilities.

"NO MORE ATTACKS WILL BE MADE BY ISRAEL pertaining to this extremely important and valuable South Pars Field unless Iran unwisely decides to attack a very innocent, in this case, Qatar," Trump said.

Trump said if Iran does so, the U.S. will respond and "massively blow up" the South Pars gas field.

"I do not want to authorize this level of violence and destruction because of the long term implications that it will have on the future of Iran, but if Qatar's LNG is again attacked, I will not hesitate to do so," Trump said in the post.

Trump began his post saying the U.S. was not made aware in advance of Israel's attack on South Pars on Wednesday, an escalation in the conflict.

Trump also claimed that Qatar was also not aware Israel would strike the Iranian gas field.

"The United States knew nothing about this particular attack, and the country of Qatar was in no way, shape, or form, involved with it, nor did it have any idea that it was going to happen," Trump wrote.

Iranian state media said Wednesday that Israel attacked Iran's South Pars Gas Field, one of the nation's largest gas resources and a key lifeline for Iran.

Iran has hit the world's largest liquefied natural gas export terminal in Qatar, according to the Qatari interior ministry.

"Civil defence is dealing with a fire in the Ras Laffan area following an Iranian targeting," the ministry said in a post on X.

According to the Financial Times, about a fifth of the world's liquefied natural gas is ordinarily shipped from Ras Laffan. International companies including, ExxonMobil, Shell and TotalEnergies are investors in the plant.

Qatar Energy, the state-owned oil and gas company, confirmed the Ras Laffan area has been hit by multiple missile attacks. The strikes have caused fires and "extensive damage," Qatar Energy said.

Iran's Ministry of Oil said that some of the facilities in Asluyeh have been damaged, with cooling and fire extinguishing operations resulting from the attacks underway.

No injuries or fatalities have been reported due to this attack, according to the ministry's report.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps issued evacuation orders for energy assets in Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE on Wednesday, according to semi-official Mehr News Agency.

This comes after local authorities in southern Iran confirmed attacks on the country's gas refinery facilities in Asaluyeh.

"These facilities have become direct and legitimate targets and will be targeted in the coming hours. Therefore, all citizens, residents and employees are requested to leave these areas immediately and move to a safe distance without any delay," the IRGC said in an evacuation order Wednesday.

"Previously, clear and repeated warnings were given to your rulers about entering this dangerous path and gambling with the fate of their nations," the IRGC said.

Reacting to the attack on the gas refineries of Iran, spokesperson for Khatam al Anbiya, command headquarters of the Iranian armed forces, said that Tehran will "strongly attack the source of aggression."

"We consider targeting the fuel, energy and gas infrastructure of the country of origin legitimate for ourselves and will retaliate strongly at the first opportunity," spokesman of Khatam al Anbiya said Wednesday, according to Tasnim News Agency.
