Netanyahu Furious, Concerned Over Removal of Pro-Tel Aviv Officials in Trump Administration
According to webangah News Agency,citing Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth via Al Jazeera,sources report growing anxiety in Tel Aviv over recent dismissals within the U.S. government.
The sources emphasized that those removed from their positions were known supporters of Israel within the American administration.
Noting that “everything in the Trump administration changes rapidly,” they suggested more pro-Israel officials could face dismissal soon.
The removals are not coincidental, the sources added, and signal a widening rift between Israel and the Trump administration.
The outlet reported that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is deeply troubled by these shifts in U.S. leadership.
The report states Netanyahu fears rising influence in Washington among figures skeptical of Israel’s policies.
Citing Israeli officials, Yedioth Ahronoth added: Netanyahu worries these individuals may convince trump that israel is pushing him toward conflict.
The newspaper claimed, per Israeli sources, that the dismissals align with trump’s efforts to weaken the U.S. National Security Council framework.
A few Israeli officials countered,tho,arguing the removals reflect Trump’s “America First” policy rather than opposition to Israel specifically.
