PMO rejects claim that Trump urged Netanyahu to reject hostage deal

The Prime Minister’s office categorically rejected a recent PBS report that claimed Trump may have urged Netanyahu to reject the recent US-advanced hostage deal proposal, the office said on Wednesday .

“The reporting is that former President Trump is on the phone with the Prime Minister of Israel, urging him not to cut a deal right now, because it’s believed it would help the Harris campaign,” said PBS NewsHour host Judy Woodruff.

Later, at The Jerusalem Post‘s request for a response, the PMO called the report a “complete lie.”
