[Israeli Prime Minister's Office Denies Plans to Assassinate Iranian Negotiators]
According to Golden Finance, on July 3, the Israeli Prime Minister's Office issued a statement denying reports by U.S. media that Israel planned to assassinate senior Iranian negotiators, calling the claims completely 'fake news' and 'utter fabrication.' According to a report by *The New York Times* on July 2, U.S. officials had earlier this year indirectly warned Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi and Speaker Qalibaf, stating that Israel might attempt to assassinate them. The U.S. expressed concerns that such actions by Israel could undermine subsequent ceasefire negotiations and trigger a new round of conflict, prompting the U.S. to request other regional countries to convey this warning to Iran. The report also mentioned that after a sudden U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran on February 28 this year, Araghchi and Qalibaf were listed as targets by Israel, and two senior Iranian officials involved in negotiations had already been killed in Israeli military strikes.
