BlockBeats News, July 15th, according to Axios citing a US official, US President Trump recently told Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu during a call that the Israeli military should start redeploying forces from Syria and urged Israel to take similar action in Lebanon.

Trump believes that the presence of the Israeli military in the Syrian control zone has escalated tensions in the region, which could lead to a further escalation. He told Netanyahu, "They don't want you there, you should redeploy." Netanyahu, on the other hand, emphasized that Israel needs to maintain a security buffer zone along the border.

Reports indicate that the Trump administration has been pushing for a new security arrangement between Israel and Syria for months, hoping that the Israeli military will gradually withdraw from the Syrian territory it has controlled since the fall of the Assad regime at the end of 2024. However, it is believed that Netanyahu is unwilling to make such concessions. Additionally, the US has recently mediated discussions on implementing the Israel-Lebanon ceasefire framework, urging the Israeli military to withdraw from some southern areas of Lebanon. However, there are still disagreements on the timeline for the withdrawal.
