Netanyahu Asked Trump to Postpone Attack on Iran Due to Israel's Lack of Defensive Readiness

Translation and Follow-up by SadaNews - The American newspaper The New York Times reported on Thursday evening that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday evening to postpone the strike on Iran.

The newspaper quoted an American official as saying that this came during a phone call between Trump and Netanyahu, where the latter indicated that Israel is not defensively prepared.

Meanwhile, a diplomatic source stated that several Arab countries asked Trump not to carry out such an attack.

An Israeli source confirmed to Channel 12 that a conversation took place yesterday evening between Netanyahu and Trump, but the content of the call remains unknown.

In this context, Channel 12 noted, as translated by SadaNews, that Israel is observing a decrease in the scale of protests in Iran in light of the violent crackdown on demonstrators.

According to Israeli estimates, the Iranian regime has succeeded in instilling fear among the demonstrators, which may hinder the momentum that the protests have gained thus far.
