SUMMARY: President Donald Trump rejected an Israeli plan to assassinate Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, fearing it would escalate the conflict and destabilize the region.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu avoided confirming the rejection and denied reports about the assassination plot.
