Biden and Netanyahu discuss by phone the files of Iran and the killing of aid workers in Gaza

On Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed with US President Joe Biden, by phone, the recent tensions between Tel Aviv and Tehran, in addition to the issue of the killing of international aid workers in the Gaza Strip.


The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation said that Netanyahu and Biden spoke by phone for about 50 minutes, and discussed the recent tensions with Iran, following the latter’s accusation that Tel Aviv assassinated 7 members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, in Damascus last Monday.


On Monday, the official Iranian IRNA news agency reported that the consular section of the Iranian embassy in Damascus was subjected to an Israeli missile attack.


The Iranian Revolutionary Guard announced, in a statement, that 7 of its members, including two generals, were killed in the Israeli attack on the mission in Damascus.


Netanyahu and Biden also spoke about the Tel Aviv murder case of 7 employees of the “Global Central Kitchen” organization, according to the same source.


The broadcasting authority did not talk about other details about the phone call between Netanyahu and Biden.


The last time the two sides spoke was on March 18, after a rupture of more than a month, when they discussed the latest developments in Israel and the Gaza Strip, including the situation in Rafah, south of the Strip, and efforts to increase humanitarian aid.


On Monday evening, the Israeli army targeted a convoy of the “World Central Kitchen” organization in the city of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, killing 7 foreign employees of the nationalities of Australia, Poland, Britain, the United States, Canada and Palestine.
