🔺Trump returns to the White House ahead of schedule, alongside a U.S. security warning for the Middle East

▪Donald Trump, the U.S. president, cut short his weekend trip to Camp David and returned to Washington on Saturday night.

▪Mr. Trump was scheduled to leave Camp David on Sunday. The White House did not provide an explanation for this early return.

▪Trump’s return was not the only unusual move on Saturday. Pete Hegseth, the U.S. defense secretary, left an American football game at Texas A&M University in the middle of the game and went to Washington. His departure was especially meaningful, because the Department of Defense plays a central role in any decision regarding new military operations.

▪Meanwhile, an official delegation from the United States that was in Copenhagen was called directly to the capital. The purpose of this delegation’s mission was not announced.
