US President Donald Trump has assured Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Washington will not compromise on Iran’s uranium issue, Israeli media reported Saturday, as Israel closely watches the future of US-Iran talks.

Channel 13 quoted an anonymous Israeli official as saying that Tel Aviv remains in a state of “constant wait” for Trump’s expected decision on Iran.

According to the report, Israeli military and intelligence officials have presented Netanyahu with increasingly aggressive stances toward Tehran in recent discussions.

The Israeli military reportedly sees the state of Iran’s military capabilities as an “operational opportunity” to resume attacks and “complete the mission,” while Mossad believes a new war could hasten the regime’s toppling. The official added that Israeli leaders are careful not to appear worried or give the impression that they are pressuring Washington for military escalation. to a US proposal aimed at ending the war.

Regional tensions have escalated sharply since the US and Israel launched attacks on Iran, prompting Iranian retaliation against Israel and US allies in the Persian Gulf, as well as the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

A cease-fire took effect on April 8 brokered by Pakistan, although negotiations in Islamabad failed to produce a permanent agreement. Trump then announced an extension of the ceasefire without setting a new deadline.

Since April 13, the US has maintained a naval blockade targeting Iranian maritime traffic in the strait.
