Netanyahu Sees Iran Ceasefire Collapsing At Any Moment; Backs Trump's Naval Blockade

Summary

The ceasefire between Iran and the United States “could turn on a dime,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the start of a cabinet meeting on Monday, according to multiple Hebrew media reports. Netanyahu said US Vice President JD Vance briefed him while returning from talks with Iran in Pakistan. According to the premier, Washington viewed Tehran as having violated the terms of the agreement. “The Americans could not tolerate Iran's blatant violation of the agreement to enter negotiations,” Netanyahu said. “The agreement was that they would stop the fire, and the Iranians would immediately open the Strait [of Hormuz] — they did not do so. The Americans could not accept this.” Also Read: Lebanon War Escalates: Israel Says Nearing Capture Of Key Hezbollah Stronghold Bint Jbeil The Times of Israel reported that Netanyahu added that, from the US perspective, the core issue remains Iran's nuclear programme. "Vance conveyed that Washington's priority is “removing all enriched material and ensuring that there will be no enrichment in the coming years, possibly for decades, no enrichment inside Iran,” Netanyahu said. According to The Times of Israel, Netanyahu also expressed support for US President Donald Trump's decision to impose a naval blockade on Iranian ports, noting that both sides remain closely aligned. “The claims that there is a rift between us (US-Israel) are completely false,” Netanyahu said. “The exact opposite is true. Anyone who was present in these conversations, and in the daily discussions we hold with the president and his team, can attest to that.” “This level of coordination has never existed before, not in the history of Israel, and not in the history of the Jewish people,” he added.

The United States and Israel have reportedly engaged in a regional conflict with Iran for nearly six months, during which Strait of Hormuz oil transit has remained significantly below prewar levels of 20 million barrels per day, despite U.S. officials claiming Navy escort operations.

Although the Strait typically facilitates over 20% of global energy trade, analysts suggest that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps may continue to restrict normal transit even if diplomatic agreements are reached. Current tensions have escalated following the expiration of a reported 60-day ceasefire, prompting the U.
