Trump ignoring Tel Aviv’s demands about Syria: Israeli report
Tehran (KNA) - US President Donald Trump’s recent statements about Syria have alarmed Israeli officials and intelligence services, according to an Israeli report.
"It's unfortunate that he isn't paying attention to the evidence provided by the intelligence services," said an unnamed senior Israeli official speaking to the Israeli Ynet news website on Thursday.
"We are in a state of shock. Trump simply doesn't understand the extent of the Iranian military's presence in the region."
The statement was made in response to Trump's earlier remarks, which some Israeli media outlets described as an American "policy change" on Syria.
"Iran is pulling people out of Syria, but they can frankly do whatever they want there," said Trump.
