Trump says ceasefire with Iran is over, calling its leaders 'scum'. The president declared an end to the truce at a NATO summit in Turkey after the U.S. and Iran exchanged dozens of strikes overnight, raising the prospect of major renewed hostilities.

ANKARA, Turkey -- The ceasefire between Iran and the United States is 'over,' President Donald Trump declared Wednesday, castigating Tehran after days of escalating attacks and adding later that the U.S. would 'probably' strike Iran again on Wednesday.
