The US and Israeli leaders have held a “tough” phone call, sources have told the outlet
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is trying to persuade US President Donald Trump to order a new attack on Iran immediately after the midterm election on Tuesday, Axios has reported, citing sources in Washington and West Jerusalem.
In its article on Sunday, the outlet revealed the details of a phone call between the two leaders about a possible resumption of military action against Tehran, which took place a day earlier and was first reported by the Wall Street Journal.
An Israeli source said that the call was “tough,” while an American one described it as “direct,” it said.
According to the sources, Trump told Netanyahu that, instead of bombing Iran right away, he wants to give negotiations between Washington and Tehran a chance first. The Israeli prime minister is concerned by this strategy, they said.
