US President Donald Trump has hit out at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calling him a 'difficult guy' to deal with amid the ongoing Iran and Lebanon crisis.
The US and Iran are set to sign a deal to end the nearly three-month conflict in West Asia, but uncertainty over Lebanon persists, with Pakistan saying it will be included in the deal but Israel maintaining its 'right to act independently.'
Trump stated that Netanyahu was a 'difficult guy' to deal with, referring to Israel's attacks on Lebanon, which added to the tensions in the region.
He also slammed Netanyahu for having 'no f***ing judgement' as Israel continued to attack Beirut, which he claimed happened hours before the US was due to announce the deal with Iran on Sunday.
The US president later admitted to a heated exchange with Netanyahu, saying he was 'a little bit perturbed' at his constantly fighting with Lebanon.
The proposed deal includes ending military operations in the region, reopening the Strait of Hormuz and lifting the US naval blockade.
The deal would then pave the way for 60 days of more negotiations, focusing on Iran's nuclear programme, which has been a point of contention for the US and Israel.
