President Donald Trump revealed on Thursday that he had a phone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and suggested that the Israeli leader could visit the United States as early as next week.
Speaking briefly to reporters, Trump did not elaborate on the content of their discussion but noted, “I had a very good call with Prime Minister Netanyahu. He might come to the U.S. next week — we’ll see.”
The potential visit comes at a time of heightened tensions in the Middle East.
Trump has maintained close ties with Netanyahu over the years and has often expressed strong support for Israel.

The United States welcomed "constructive" discussions between Israeli and Lebanese military delegations at the Pentagon on Friday, following nine hours of talks aimed at advancing the security track of ongoing peace negotiations between the two countries.

Iran said on Friday it was looking for actions, not words from the United States after sources said President Donald Trump was weighing an initial U.S.-Iranian agreement to extend a ceasefire and open the Strait of Hormuz.
