President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed Iran in a call described by Trump as very good, while Netanyahu is reportedly pressing for immediate strikes after the U.S. midterm elections. An Iranian delegation has left Qatar, but talks remain active and Tehran is awaiting a U.S. response to a proposal involving the Strait of Hormuz. The situation carries broad global risks because renewed conflict could disrupt energy and shipping routes while expanding regional hostilities.[1][4]
