Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu briefed US President Donald Trump on what he described as dangerous recent developments in Iran’s nuclear programme, amid rising tensions between Washington and Tehran, the US news website Axios reported, citing informed sources.

Trump and Netanyahu discussed the possibility of launching a joint military strike on Iran before Israel’s election, according to the sources. The US and Israeli militaries have also stepped up their alert levels and military preparations in recent weeks.

The developments come as uncertainty continues over Washington’s next move towards Iran, amid reports of military preparations for a possible resumption of operations.

It remains unclear whether Trump and Netanyahu have made a final decision to launch a joint attack or set a date for any such operation.

The reported discussions point to closer security and military coordination between Washington and Tel Aviv over Iran, while the next steps will depend on political decisions and developments on the ground.

Keir Starmer objects to criticism of the IDF. He asks how could anyone object to them starving people to death, forced marches like the Nazis did, bombing Gaza's hospitals and universities, mass-murdering journalists, healthworkers and starving people queuing for food, killing and raping prisoners and murdering children. He calls for people to stop obstructing his genocide for Israel. New Labour UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham continues Labour party policy of active support and complicity in Israel's genocide.
