Event details

L'Orient Today cited Israeli reporting that Netanyahu told Israel's security cabinet it may need to confront Iran without U.S. support, while military leadership reportedly viewed almost any U.S.-Iran deal as a bad deal. Times of Israel separately reported that Trump had warned Netanyahu Israel could be left on its own if it escalated against Iran.

Context

The report frames a possible U.S.-Israel split as a live operational constraint, not just diplomacy noise. If Israel believes it may act without U.S. backing, cabinet readouts and military readiness comments become more important than generic deal optimism.
