JAKARTA - Israeli Prime Minister (PM) Benjamin Netanyahu has asked the US for an explanation regarding the issue of President Donald Trump's aides in the White House communicating with Iran.

US media, Axios reported, two of its anonymous sources revealed that Israeli intelligence obtained information indicating the possibility of contact between the Trump administration and Iranian officials on Monday this week discussing a possible ceasefire.

Not wanting that to happen, Axios said Netanyahu then contacted White House officials to ask about the truth regarding the issue of talks or exchanges of messages between the US and Iran.

One source told the media that the White House responded by telling Netanyahu that the Trump administration did not communicate with Iranian officials "behind his back".
