Questions are reportedly growing in Jerusalem over whether President Donald Trump could change direction in his relationship with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as negotiations surrounding a U.S.-Iran agreement move closer to a potential breakthrough.

According to a regional analyst cited in the report, concerns inside Israel intensified Sunday after the Israel Defense Forces carried out another strike in Beirut, despite warnings that further military action could complicate efforts to finalize an agreement with Tehran.

The strikes occurred as Netanyahu prepared to convene Israel’s Security Cabinet and after Trump announced that a new memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran was expected to be signed soon.

According to the report, some observers fear that continued escalation could increase tensions between Washington and Jerusalem at a particularly sensitive diplomatic moment.

A diplomat involved in negotiations with Tehran told Fox News Chief Foreign Correspondent Trey Yingst that the Beirut strikes were creating complications for finalizing the agreement. The diplomat described the military action as “a clear attempt by Israel to sabotage the president’s deal and drag the United States back into war.”

Supporters of Trump’s diplomatic efforts may view the current moment as a test of whether negotiations can move forward while regional actors continue pursuing their own security priorities. Others will argue that Middle East diplomacy has never been known for perfect timing—or easy alignment among allies.

For now, the administration appears focused on pushing negotiations toward the finish line while balancing relationships that have historically moved in parallel but not always in lockstep.

If a deal is as close as officials suggest, the coming days may determine whether diplomacy wins the race—or whether events on the ground change the course before the ink ever reaches the page.
