Israel rejects 'completely' mooted nuclear deal with Iran

Israel rejects "completely" a mooted world powers deal with Iran aimed at ending a long-running row over its nuclear ambitions, and will not be bound by such an accord, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said.

A senior Israeli official quoted Netanyahu as saying late on Thursday that the agreement under consideration would bury "the possibility of having a peaceful resolution". Netanyahu met US Secretary of State John Kerry on Friday morning for the third time in two days. (Reuters)
