U.S. President Trump told NBC News in phone interview that he spoke with Israel on Friday and asked them to agree to a ceasefire with Iranian-back militant group Hezbollah.
'You just gotta calm down sometimes and use your head,' Trump was quoted as saying on X by an NBC reporter, who added that Trump declined to specify whether he spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu directly.
