President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu got into a “shouting match from hell” over the weekend over their different stances on the future of the Iran war, according to Israeli media.

A phone call between the two leaders saw Netanyahu repeatedly push for the war to restart, but Trump stuck to the diplomatic angle to allow the current peace talks with Iran to progress, Ynet and the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported.

The phone call eventually turned confrontational, descending into “a shouting match from hell,” sources told both outlets.

The prime minister’s office denied the characterization of the call, slamming the reports as “fake news.”

A senior Israeli official told the outlets that a call did take place over the weekend, but insisted that no clash took place between the two leaders.

Trump and Netanyahu have had a history of heated phone calls over the war, including several clashes in June when the president told The Post that he called the prime minister “f–king crazy” during one call.

The reports of the weekend call came just days after the Financial Times reported that Netanyahu was calling Trump every day to urge him to resume all-out war.

Netanyahu, whose position as Israel’s longest-serving prime minister hangs in the balance after he lost seats in October’s general election, has been adamant that the US needs to restart strikes on Iran and enforce a regime change.

The premier told the 26th Knesset assembly on Tuesday that regime change is the only way to end Tehran’s reign of terror and stop its nuclear program.

“Iran is working to renew the nuclear threat. The only way to permanently remove this existential threat is by toppling the ayatollah regime,” he said.
