Although European leaders have broadly attributed ultimate responsibility to Iran, they've struggled to present a unified stance following the attacks.

French President Emmanuel Macron described Trump's actions as outside of international law last night, while Spain's leader Pedro Sanchez was more critical, saying that one can be against a hateful regime while at the same time be against, quote, an unjustified, dangerous military intervention.

On the other hand, German Chancellor Merz was Trump's guest of honor.

He said that now was not the time to lecture the U.S.

about international war, adding that legal appeals to Iran had, quote, achieved little over the years.

Support also came from NATO's Secretary General and former Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, a current favorite of Trump's.

He was the most enthusiastic, giving Trump his full backing when he appeared on Fox over the weekend.

No matter how European countries feel about the war, they are unlikely to escape its impact.

France and the UK have sent military backup to Cyprus after an Iran-made drone struck a British base.

Europe could also be heavily affected if an energy crisis spirals out of control.

And yesterday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned that a prolonged war could distract allies and deplete stocks of missile defenses in its fight against Russia.

And finally, a few other stories we're following.

On Tuesday, a father whose teenage son carried out the deadliest school shooting in Georgia state history was convicted of second-degree murder and other charges.

The jury held him criminally responsible for giving his son the rifle that was allegedly used in the incident and for ignoring red flags leading up to the shooting, which resulted in the deaths of two students and two teachers.

Colin Gray bought his 14-year-old son the firearm, saying he had hoped it would bring them closer.

Prosecutors say Gray didn't take the gun away from his son, even though there were signs that he suffered from mental health problems.

He also reportedly knew his son had become infatuated with other school shooters.

Gray took the stand in his own defense, saying he had no reason to suspect his son was planning a mass shooting.

He could spend the rest of his life in prison.
