Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, denied the report of the Financial Times according to which Donald Trump prevented the implementation of Israel's plan for a ground attack on Iran this month.

Mr. Netanyahu told the Channel 7 captives that this report was "false" and added that he would not explain the content of his recent conversations with the American president about Iran.

The "Financial Times" newspaper, a British edition, reported yesterday, citing knowledgeable sources, without naming names, that Israel's captive army was ready to carry out attacks in Iran on October 10 and 11 (about 11 days ago), but Donald Trump decided not to launch a ground attack on Iran until the American midterm elections.

According to the Financial Times, nuclear facilities, government centers and some civilian facilities such as power plants were among ISIS' planned targets. This newspaper quoted from one of its sources that the planned attacks on prisoners in Israel were supposed to be "more serious" than the attacks that took place in the 40-day war.
