According to a report from Israel’s Channel 12, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has engaged in multiple phone conversations with President Donald Trump to discuss the possibility of a joint US-Israeli military operation targeting Iranian military sites. The report suggests that these discussions have taken place over the last two weeks.

Unnamed senior American officials cited in the report expressed surprise at the Prime Minister's apparent interest in initiating such an operation before the upcoming election dates. Israel is scheduled to hold elections on October 27, while the United States is set to hold midterm elections on November 3. The report frames these discussions as an effort to potentially influence the security landscape in the region ahead of these political events.

While the report highlights the timing of these discussions, it does not confirm that any specific plans have been finalized or that the Trump administration has committed to such an operation. The situation remains speculative, as neither the White House nor the Prime Minister’s office has provided official confirmation or detailed commentary regarding the specific content of these private diplomatic communications. The report serves as an account of alleged behind-the-scenes pressure rather than a confirmed military strategy.
