U.S. President Donald Trump says he is “not happy” with Israel’s handling of the conflict involving Hezbollah in Lebanon. Multiple outlets report that Trump made the remarks after Israel carried out strikes over the weekend in Lebanon, where Hezbollah—a militant group backed by Iran—operates. CBS News adds that Trump is concerned about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s approach to the fighting and that the criticism comes as U.S. officials are discussing an Iran-related peace effort. The New York Post similarly reports that Trump acknowledged his displeasure with Israel’s actions as he was finalizing work connected to talks involving Iran. The Globe and Mail also characterizes Trump’s comments as direct dissatisfaction with how Israel has dealt with Lebanon and Hezbollah. Across the reports, the key point is that Trump publicly signals dissatisfaction with Israel’s actions and decision-making in the Lebanon conflict, while the timing of the remarks is linked to broader U.S. diplomacy connected to Iran. The outlets do not provide additional details in the provided summaries about the specific strikes or any immediate changes in U.S.-Israel coordination.
