Israeli sources told media on the 11th that US President Trump and caretaker
Prime Minister Netanyahu had a “hellish” argument last weekend over whether to
resume military action against Iran, with Netanyahu urging a restart and Trump
pushing continued diplomatic engagement. Two sources described the call as
“difficult.” The Israeli prime minister’s office called the report fake news and
denied a confrontational tone. A senior Israeli official confirmed a call
occurred but said it was not “difficult.”
