Reports indicate that Israel was reportedly preparing for a significant military action in Tehran on Monday. The potential escalation was reportedly curtailed following direct intervention from the United States. According to an Israeli source and a U.S.
official familiar with the details, former President Donald Trump contacted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, urging him to cease further retaliatory strikes against Iran. This intervention appeared to influence the immediate situation, as Netanyahu later announced that Israel had temporarily suspended its planned attacks targeting Iran. This exchange marked the second time Trump had called Netanyahu within a short period.
In the preceding conversation, Trump had also pressed the Israeli leader to withdraw from strikes that were in response to rockets fired by Iran against Israeli territory. Despite the de-escalation concerning the strikes, underlying geopolitical tensions remain. During the call, it was reported that Netanyahu reportedly resisted discussions regarding Iran’s stated commitment to maintaining control over the Strait of Hormuz, even in the face of potential new sanctions.
The exchange highlights the diplomatic efforts made to prevent a broader military confrontation between the nations.
