Trump refused to support a new attack on Iran before the Israeli elections Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tried to convince US President Donald Trump to conduct a joint military operation against Iran before the Israeli elections scheduled for October 27. This was reported by CNN, citing two American officials and a source in the Israeli security services. According to the TV channel, one of the reasons for the refusal was the warning from the Chief of the General Staff of the IDF, Eyal Zamir. He told US General Dan Kane that a new attack could disrupt the vote and postpone the election. As a result, Israel has rejected plans for new strikes in Iran, but continues to prepare for possible joint operations with the United States after the midterm elections for the US Congress.
