The White House has confirmed that former US President Donald Trump contacted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address recent Israeli airstrikes in Gaza and Syria. Trump was reportedly surprised by the attacks, including a strike on a Catholic Church in Gaza. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that Trump sought to ‘rectify’ the situations with Netanyahu, despite the complex relationship between the two leaders, marked by instances of distrust. Efforts to stabilize Syria and ongoing negotiations for a ceasefire in Gaza were also discussed. Trump expressed concern over the ongoing conflict and emphasized the need for humanitarian aid.
