US President Donald Trump has asked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war in Gaza and stop talk of a potential military strike on Iran, CNN reported, citing a source familiar with their recent phone conversation. The phone call, which took place on Monday, comes amid ongoing indirect ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and the US, as well as Washington’s efforts to secure a nuclear agreement with Iran.

CNN noted that despite Trump later describing the call as “very well, very smooth”, tensions between the two leaders have grown in recent weeks over the Gaza conflict. According to CNN, Trump urged Netanyahu during the call to stop public discussion of a potential attack on Iran and halt leaks about related military plans.

In response, Netanyahu reportedly told Trump that Iran was stalling through negotiations and was not genuinely committed to any deal.
