Netanyahu downplays report that Trump vetoed Israeli plan to kill Khamenei
US President Donald Trump vetoed an Israeli plan to kill Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, two US officials tell Reuters.
Asked about the report during a live interview on Fox News, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says, “There are so many false reports about conversations that never happened — I’m not going to get into it.”
National Security Advisor Tzachi Hanegbi also denies the report, calling it “fake news of the highest order.”
