Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the U.S.-led negotiations with Hamas and Iran being conducted over Israel's head, stating that contrary to reports, there is no rift between him and U.S. President Donald Trump. 'A few days ago, I spoke with President Trump by phone. He told me, "Bibi, I want you to know I have an absolute commitment to you and an absolute commitment to the State of Israel."' Netanyahu added, 'We are coordinated with the administration. I don't have the ability to counter the spin and fake news approximately four times per hour. I have no objection to the U.S. deepening its ties with the Arab world.'
