Before asserting that Iran and Israel had agreed to a cease-fire, President Trump spoke to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel and Iranian officials, with Qatar helping to mediate.

But the swiftness of the attack on Saturday night suggests that plans were underway after Israel began its bombing campaign against Iran a little more than a week ago.
