According to Axios, President Trump urged Netanyahu to redeploy Israeli forces from Syria and Lebanon while Israel cites ongoing security concerns.
US President Donald Trump told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a phone call on Thursday that Israel should begin redeploying its forces from Syria and encouraged him to do the same in Lebanon, according to US and Israeli officials cited by Axios.
The request comes as Israel maintains military positions in parts of southern Lebanon and southern Syria, with Israeli officials saying the deployments are necessary to prevent future attacks similar to the October 7th Massacre.
According to Axios, a US official said Trump told Netanyahu that the Israeli military presence in Syrian territory was creating tensions and could lead to escalation. The official quoted Trump as saying, "They don't want you there. You should redeploy," adding that the same message applied to Lebanon.
