U.S. President Donald Trump said that the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran will end "soon" because there is "practically nothing left to target."

"A little this and that ... Any time I want it to end, it will end," Trump told U.S. online media outlet Axios in a five-minute phone interview on Wednesday.

U.S. and Israeli officials say there is no internal directive on when fighting might stop, according to the Axios report.
