US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are set to speak Wednesday, a source familiar with the issue said, as Israel weighs up its response to last week's missile attack by Iran.
The scheduled call between the two leaders comes amid reported tensions between their administrations, and would be their first since August 21, a seven-week gap during which Israel also launched an offensive against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
