Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is urging President Trump "every day" to press for renewed military strikes against Iran, despite ongoing diplomatic efforts to end the conflict, according to the FT.
Officials in and outside the White House who oppose further military action are trying to counter Netanyahu's pressure, while regional leaders are urging Trump to avoid escalation and prioritize negotiations.
Bibi's lobbying has raised concerns among Arab and Muslim leaders, who fear a renewed escalation of the war and are desperately urging Trump to hold back.
