Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu kept up his offensive against the framework nuclear deal with Iran on Tuesday, saying it fails to address Tehran's long-range missile arsenal.
"Why doesn't the framework address Iran's intercontinental ballistic missile programme whose sole purpose is to carry nuclear payloads?" he asked on his official Twitter account.
It was the latest shot in transatlantic sniping on the issue between Netanyahu's office and the White House.
On Sunday, Netanyahu demanded that Iranian recognition of the Jewish state's right to exist be written into last week's agreement.
The following day US President Barack Obama rejected that call in an interview with US radio network NPR.
"The notion that we would condition Iran not getting nuclear weapons in a verifiable deal on Iran recognising Israel, is really akin to saying that we won't sign a deal unless the nature of the Iranian regime completely transforms," Obama said.
"And that is, I think, a fundamental misjudgement."
