Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump are “fully coordinated” amid escalating tensions with Iran as Trump vows to carry out additional attacks on the Islamic Republic, a source in the Prime Minister’s Office tells The Times of Israel.

“The PM and President speak every other day, sometimes every day, and are fully coordinated,” the source says.

The two leaders appeared at odds earlier this week when Trump urged Netanyahu not to escalate after Iran launched ballistic missile attacks, but Israel nevertheless carried out strikes. Trump has since taken a tougher stance towards Tehran following Iran’s downing of a US helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz, though he has not abandoned efforts to reach a diplomatic deal, which he said today was “fully negotiated.”
