Israel has repeatedly signalled readiness to strike Iran’s nuclear sites, particularly after Iran’s April and October 2024 missile attacks on Israel, which followed Israeli strikes on Iranian proxies.
Yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu concluded a 40-minute phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump, focusing primarily on Iran’s nuclear program and the progress of ongoing U.S.-Iran negotiations, amid heightened tensions over potential Israeli military action.
Following the discussion, Netanyahu is set to convene a security meeting to address Iran’s nuclear threat, reflecting Israel’s ongoing concerns about Tehran’s capabilities.
The call comes as the U.S. pushes for a diplomatic resolution to curb Iran’s uranium enrichment, while Israel remains skeptical, viewing any deal allowing enrichment as a security risk.
