Trump and Netanyahu Discuss Iran as US Considers Military Options

President Donald Trump discussed Iran with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by phone on Saturday as Washington weighs potential renewed military action, according to The Wall Street Journal. The call followed a White House meeting where Trump consulted senior military leaders on strategic options. Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed diplomatic talks with Iran have continued without interruption, though he declined to assess progress or set deadlines. He emphasized Washington remains open to a peaceful resolution while criticizing Iran's maritime aggression and support for regional armed groups. Iran's top security official Mohsen Rezaei said a letter from Vice President JD Vance showed a completely shifted tone, marking the first official Iranian reaction to the diplomatic overture. Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei warned of geographically unrestricted military responses to any US or Israeli provocation.
