Speaking at the G7 summit in Evian-les-Bains, France, US President Donald Trump said Israel 'has to be more responsible with respect to Lebanon' and that 'too many people are being killed', Al Jazeera reported. He said he did not like an Israeli strike on Beirut two days earlier and warned that 'all hell will rain down' if Iran tried to build a nuclear weapon. At that point the US-Iran memorandum of understanding was due to be signed formally in Geneva on Friday 19 June, opening 60 days of talks on a final deal.
