Trump Warns Netanyahu: US May Not Support Israel in Iran Strike
Axios reports that Donald Trump told Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu that the US might not back Israel if it proceeds with a major strike on Iran, leading Israel to pause the operation on condition that Iran also halts attacks.
According to Axios, former President Donald Trump warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the United States could leave Israel to face consequences alone if it launched a planned large-scale strike against Iran. The warning prompted Israel to stand down from the operation, conditional on Iran ceasing its own attacks.
The development signals a potential de-escalation in the region, though the situation remains conditional and fragile. No further details on the timing or specific targets of the planned strike have been disclosed.
