Netanyahu Speaks To Trump, Vows Continued Strikes Despite Pause Talk

Benjamin Netanyahu has said he spoke with Donald Trump, even as the US considers a pause in the ongoing West Asia conflict. Netanyahu has vowed to continue strikes in Iran and Lebanon, signalling no let-up in Israel's military campaign. Trump, meanwhile, has claimed Tehran is open to a deal and even floated the idea of US control over Iran's uranium-claims firmly rejected by Iran. Tehran has denied any negotiations and accused Washington of spreading misinformation, while also asserting control over the Strait of Hormuz.
