US President Donald Trump warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Israel might have to fight Iran alone if it launches another attack. This warning came after renewed exchanges of fire between Iran and Israel on Sunday night. Trump conveyed this message during a phone call with Netanyahu on Monday and later in an interview with Axios. Following the largest conflict since an April ceasefire, both countries agreed to temporarily halt their attacks. Trump's comments followed this agreement.
Media reports indicate growing dissatisfaction from Trump towards Netanyahu. In a post on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump urged both sides to immediately cease 'firing' and called for 'final negotiations' to establish peace, unless 'ignorance or foolishness' hinders progress. Various media outlets reported that Trump called Netanyahu to ask him to stop the attacks. In an interview with Axios, Trump confirmed that he had warned Netanyahu about the consequences of continuing the war.
