The Times of Israel (TOI) reported, citing officials from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office, that U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed the possibility of resuming military attacks against Iran during a phone call on the 17th (local time).

Before the call, Prime Minister Netanyahu stated during a cabinet meeting, "Through my phone conversation with President Trump, I will hear his impressions of his visit to China and discuss several matters," adding, "We are closely monitoring the situation with Iran and are preparing for all scenarios." The specific contents of the conversation between the two leaders have not yet been released.

Israeli media outlet Channel 12 also quoted U.S. officials, reporting, "President Trump viewed his conversation with Netanyahu positively, focusing primarily on the prospect of war with Iran."

On this day, while President Trump did not directly disclose the details of his call with Prime Minister Netanyahu, he issued a warning message to Iran. On his social media platform Truth Social, he stated, "Iran does not have much time left. They would be wise to act quickly, or there will be nothing left for them." Alongside this, President Trump posted an image of himself standing with a U.S. Navy admiral against the backdrop of a turbulent sea, with the caption, "It was the calm before the storm."

Concerns are growing in and outside the United States about the potential resumption of military operations against Iran. According to The New York Times (NYT), the U.S. Department of Defense is preparing for the possibility that military operations against Iran, which were suspended last month due to the ceasefire declaration, could resume. Two officials from the Middle East region, who requested anonymity, told NYT that the United States and Israel have begun intensive preparations with the resumption of attacks in mind.
