Trump's Firing of National Security Advisor Linked to Secret Talks With Netanyahu on Iran: Washington Post
- President Donald Trump removed Mike Waltz from his role as National Security Adviser after Waltz held undisclosed discussions about military options targeting Iran with Israel’s prime minister.

- Waltz’s removal reflects internal divisions and a possible decline in hawkish influence on U.S. Iran policy, signaling a preference for diplomatic approaches within Trump’s administration.
