In yesterday’s phone call, US President Joe Biden firmly urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to “stop escalating tensions in the region and move immediately toward a hostage deal and a ceasefire in Gaza,” Axios reported. The president said he was “very concerned” about rising tensions in the Middle East and said the assassination in Iran of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh “has not helped” the situation. A US official told Axios that Biden complained to Netanyahu that the two men had just spoken in the Oval Office last week about the hostage deal, while Netanyahu was carrying out the assassination in Tehran in the dark. The US leader then told his Israeli colleague that the US would help Israel defeat a possible Iranian attack, but that he did not expect further escalation. For Biden, Tel Aviv must move immediately toward a hostage deal. Biden also warned Netanyahu that if the same scenario as the one of the last few days were to repeat itself, the United States would not act to save Israel. The United States is convinced that Iran will attack Israel in the coming days in retaliation for the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, and is preparing to respond, three American leaders told Axios, predicting the same pattern as the April 13 attack, but with a potentially broader scope. , with the possible involvement of Lebanese Hezbollah as well.
