Trump called Netanyahu, asked him not to attack Iran: Axios

President Donald Trump called Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and asked him not to attack Iran, an Axios reporter has said in an X post, citing an Israeli official.

The Axios reporter said Netanyahu told Trump that he was unable to cancel the attack and that it was needed because Iran violated the ceasefire, Reuters reports.

The attack would be significantly scaled back and would not hit a large number of targets, but only strike one target, according to the report.
