President Trump has privately told advisers he will not abandon the ceasefire with Iran unless American troops are killed in an attack.
The President is reportedly determined to avoid a return to full-scale war despite continued skirmishes and mounting pressure for retaliation.
Trump's position comes as US and Iranian forces continue exchanging limited fire while diplomatic efforts remain underway behind the scenes.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio argued "the war is over" and said the administration's focus is now on securing a lasting settlement.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, however, has said there has been "no tangible progress" towards a final agreement.
