President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu held a phone call to discuss potential renewed strikes on Iran, according to Axios, citing sources. Netanyahu is pressuring for action after the U.S. midterm elections. The call on October 31 covered negotiation status and timing for resuming combat. Netanyahu pushed for an attack following the November 3 U.S. elections, but Trump prefers to monitor diplomatic talks. Israeli sources described the conversation as "tough." Qatar, mediating the negotiations, has held three consecutive days of talks with Iran to restart U.S. diplomacy. Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi said progress is visible but no definitive conclusion has been reached.
