- Israeli media reports that Donald Trump has called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reassure him that a final agreement with Iran will stop its nuclear program. Netanyahu reportedly told the US president that Israel would preserve its freedom to act against regional threats.

He contrasted the 2015 JCPOA agreement with the current deal being negotiated, noting that Netanyahu promised Israelis "regime change and a complete destruction of the infrastructure of long-range missiles."
