New York ¨C Israel has not ruled out an attack on Iran¡¯s nuclear facilities in the coming months despite President Donald Trump telling Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the U.S. was for now unwilling to support such a move, according to an Israeli official and two other people familiar with the matter.
Israeli officials have vowed to prevent Tehran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and Netanyahu has insisted that any negotiation with Iran must lead to the complete dismantling of its nuclear program.
U.S. and Iranian negotiators were holding a second round of preliminary nuclear talks in Rome on Saturday.
