Trump vetoed Israeli plan to kill Iran’s Supreme Leader - Reuters

US President Donald Trump vetoed an Israeli plan to assassinate Iran’s Supreme Leader in recent days, Reuters reported citing two unnamed US officials.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declined to comment on the Reuters report. "I'm not going to get into that," Netanyahu told Fox News.

Axios quoted a US official as saying the Israelis had an opportunity to kill Khamenei, but the US told them Trump was opposed to that.

"The Iranians haven't killed an American, and discussion of killing political leaders should not be on the table," the US official was quoted as saying.
