Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Jack Spear. A meeting of President Trump's

national security team has wrapped up with some indications. The administration may be

warming to the idea of having the U.S. play a role in Israel's ongoing

strikes against Iran. President Trump saying he's interested in something much bigger than a ceasefire,

the what exactly that means is not entirely clear. The White House has said the U.S. is not

joining Israel's attacks on Iran. Some U.S. assets, including a third U.S. Navy destroyer have been moved to the region.

A second U.S. carrier strike group is headed toward the Arabian Sea.

President Trump, meanwhile, says Iran's supreme leader is an easy target. But as NPR Franco Ordone, his reports, Trump says the leader is safe for now.

President Trump took to social media where he's calling for the unconditional surrender from Iran in its conflict with Israel, which is entering its fifth day of

exchanging strikes. Trump said, quote, we have now total and complete control of the skies over

Iran. In another post, he said the U.S. knows exactly where the Supreme Leader is.

Quote, we're not going to take them out, at least for now, but we don't want missiles shot at civilians or American soldiers.

Our patience is wearing thin.
