The official said that Israel is continuously reviewing intelligence related to the site and said decisions on Iran rest with President Trump, with "everything on the table, from an agreement to a significant attack."

The Strait of Hormuz is an international waterway.

The IRGC has no authority to dictate routes for free and open traffic flow. Commercial vessels continue to use the strait with U.S. military support.

Since early May, CENTCOM forces have helped approximately 1,000 vessels and 500 million barrels of crude oil pass through the narrow waterway.

Netanyahu used the maps to push back against earlier U.S. pressure for Israeli redeployments from Syria and Lebanon, including a mid-July phone call from Trump urging withdrawals. Netanyahu argued that Israel's limited presence helps prevent jihadist groups from establishing themselves near its border.

The two leaders also discussed Trump's relationship with Turkish President Erdoğan during the meeting.

Regarding Lebanon, Netanyahu told Trump that Israel intends to keep forces on the ground for as long as "the threat persists."

Ultimately, no U.S. demand for Israeli withdrawals from any sector was made during the White House meeting.

My visit to the United States has been excellent.

You constantly hear about the waves of hatred against Israel in the United States, but you are probably not told about the waves of love and appreciation.

I have just finished a conversation here with the Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth.

He told me something interesting. He said to me, "We look at the world, and there are countries that have the will to fight alongside the United States, but they lack the capability. And there are countries that have the capability, but lack the will."

He said, "Only in Israel do we see both the will and the capability."

Netanyahu said he wants to begin negotiating a new MoU and is prepared to lead the effort publicly, saying he no longer wants Israel to depend on "the goodwill of the U.S. Congress" as bipartisan support for military aid shifts.

Trump and his team responded that some Republicans worry backing such a plan could expose them to accusations of being anti-Israel. Netanyahu said Israel is open to a faster timeline if feasible.

Netanyahu has instructed Israel's defense industry to develop a domestically produced modern fighter jet within the next decade to reduce reliance on U.S.-supplied aircraft such as the F-35.

Netanyahu's proposal for a new MoU includes $16 billion in direct U.S. military aid, $5–10 billion for missile defense development, and a $16 billion joint U.S.-Israel fund for research and development of next-generation weapons systems.

We have achieved very significant results in the campaign against Iran. We are prepared for a wide range of scenarios.

If required, we will also know how to deepen these achievements.

In Lebanon, we have captured territory and are clearing it of terrorist infrastructure.

These are areas from which the terrorist organization Hezbollah has been preparing, threatening, and operating against northern settlements.

If required, we will expand our operations and reach additional areas.
