U.S. President Donald Trump says he is unhappy with Israel’s latest strike on Beirut and plans to speak with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discourage further escalation with Iran.

U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed frustration over Israel’s latest military strike on Beirut, saying he was not pleased with the operation and intends to speak directly with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

According to reports, Trump stated that he would urge Netanyahu to avoid actions that could further escalate tensions with Iran, as Washington continues efforts to keep diplomatic channels open and prevent a wider regional conflict.

The remarks come amid growing strains between Trump and Netanyahu over Israel’s military actions in Lebanon. In recent days, Trump reportedly intervened to halt or scale back planned Israeli operations targeting Beirut and publicly acknowledged a heated disagreement with the Israeli leader.

The latest developments follow Israeli strikes on Beirut that have raised fears of direct Iranian retaliation and potential disruption of ongoing diplomatic efforts involving the United States and Iran.

Trump has repeatedly stated that he wants to avoid a broader Middle East war and has emphasized the importance of maintaining peace negotiations while reducing military escalation in the region.
