Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has agreed to US President Donald Trump's request not to retaliate against Iran after a missile attack on northern Israel, officials familiar with the discussions have confirmed. The Iranian barrage, the first direct assault since an April ceasefire, followed Israeli strikes on Hezbollah targets in Beirut.
Israeli air defences intercepted all projectiles, with no casualties or damage reported. Trump urged restraint during a Sunday phone call to protect talks he described as close to a breakthrough.
