Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he spoke earlier with President Donald J. Trump and came away convinced that a new diplomatic opening may now be possible after major joint military gains. In a video statement, Netanyahu said Trump believes the achievements secured alongside the U.S. military can be leveraged into an agreement that fulfills the goals of the war while protecting Israel’s vital interests. The remarks suggest that after weeks of intense operations, Jerusalem and Washington may now see an opportunity to convert battlefield momentum into political advantage. At the same time, Netanyahu made clear that Israel’s core security demands remain non-negotiable.
