Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has "certainly gotten some things wrong", US Vice-President JD Vance has said, as ties between the two partners in the war against Iran appear to have become strained in recent weeks.
While Vance would not provide examples, he told CBS News, the BBC's US partner, that Netanyahu "aggressively asserts the interests of his country" but that they were not always aligned with those of the US.
His comments mark a further public admission that relations between the two allies have come under pressure of late.
Recently, US President Donald Trump reportedly clashed with the Israeli leader over military action in Lebanon that brought renewed strikes and threatened peace talks with Tehran.
The US and Iran exchanged strikes for a second consecutive day overnight, straining a ceasefire between the two nations that has remained in place since April.
It came after Trump said Tehran had taken "too long to make a deal" to end the war, though the renewed hostilities were triggered by events in Lebanon, where Israel has continued an operation aimed at the Iranian-backed armed group Hezbollah.
Last week, Trump told an Axios journalist that he had called Netanyahu "effing crazy" in a phone conversation, saying he had been "a little bit perturbed at his constantly fighting with Lebanon".

Why do they need to make such public statements?
Israel is a major focus of your mission here at FR, as you quick fire thread topics as a foreigner from from your home country.
Press report: “J. D. Vance says he hates the Jews and wishes they were dead!”
“major focus”, it’s in the news so yeah I focus on the news
There really isn’t any more to it 😂
“””””“major focus”, it’s in the news so yeah I focus on the news”””””
You carefully choose the topics for your prolific thread posting and they are not random news, you have a very narrow focus as you try to turn FR against Trump and Israel and kill Trump’s support at FR.
You are not a news reporter and there is nothing casual or spontaneous, or random, about your focus as a foreigner posting thread after thread topic from your homeland.
Vance continues to embarrass himself with such stupid remarks... which don’t fool the Iranian dictators anyway.
America would be better with a more clearly committed Veep
Because they’re true and need saying?
NO FOREIGN COUNTRY is always aligned with the USA. Israel is far closer than most. Including pretty much any of the Arab countries you seem to like.
👍👍
The crap you see in the BBC is not “news”. Do better.
Believe me im not a fan of those Arab countries full of despots an unlikable bunch...
Agree. Why can’t Vance just keep his mouth shut about it? He’s got Tucker Carlson whispering in his ear no doubt.
Bibi hasn’t remained in power this long by being a dunce. He knows that sometimes if you want a kitten, you ask for a pony. Then you negotiate down to the kitten.
Just because the Western press reports that DJT (& VEEP Vance) have rebuked Netanyahu doesn’t necessarily mean he didn’t get exactly what he wanted from the start.
we sure hope not. Tucker is poison
If you leave the dictators in charge they will continue to murder thousands and 10’s of thousands. Kill them now instead of kicking the can down the road.
Tucker Carlson is one of JD Vance’s closest personal friends. He refuses to disavow any of the horrendous stuff Tucker is saying. I find it troublesome.
OMG! I had no idea...
if Vance can’t choose his friends better than that (!) he’s a real problem in public office. imho
Until a few weeks ago Tucker’s son was Vance’s deputy chief of staff. After Tucker turned on Trump the kid finally had to go.
