Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office denied reports alleging President Trump berated the leader for denying there is a starvation crisis in Gaza amid the Israel-Hamas war.

The phone call reportedly occurred on July 28, after the president told reporters he’d seen images of individuals who “look very hungry” and said there’s “real starvation” just a day after Netanyahu rejected stories detailing famine.

The Israeli prime minister requested a conversation with Trump during his trip to Scotland and was connected to the leader within hours, NBC News reported.
