U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speak by phone Friday as tensions escalate between Iran and Israel, according to a White House official.
The call comes as Iran launches retaliatory strikes, firing over 150 ballistic missiles toward Israel following Israeli attacks on Iranian nuclear and missile facilities earlier in the day.
While details of the leaders’ conversation are not immediately disclosed, the timing underscores close coordination between Washington and Tel Aviv as the situation intensifies.
Earlier Friday, Israeli forces carry out widespread strikes across Iran, reportedly targeting nuclear sites, missile factories, and senior Iranian military personnel. Iran vows a forceful response, and by evening, sirens sound across Israeli cities, including Tel Aviv, as explosions are heard and air defense systems are activated.
