Pakistan condemned U.S. President Donald Trump for bombing Iran, less than 24 hours after saying he deserved a Nobel Peace Prize for defusing a recent crisis with India. Relations between the two South Asian countries plummeted after a massacre of tourists in Indian-controlled Kashmir in April.

Posting on Truth Social on Friday night, Trump cited a peace deal he said his administration helped broker between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda.
