Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington, before his flight back to ISRAEL:

"I am now completing my second visit to the United States in two months. A very warm visit with my friend President Donald Trump.

You could be impressed by the great closeness and great friendship between us, and it is expressed in the issues we discussed.


First of all - Iran. We agree that Iran will not have nuclear weapons. This can be done in an agreement, but only if this agreement is a Libya-style agreement; that we go in, blow up the facilities, dismantle all the equipment, under American supervision and American execution - that is good.


A second option, that it will not happen. They will simply drag out the talks, and then the option is military. Everyone understands that. We discussed that at length.


A second issue we discussed - Gaza. We are determined to ELIMINATE Hamas, and at the same time we are determined to return all our hostages.

And the president looked at me and said to the reporters there: 'This man is working all the time to free the hostages.' I hope that with this he has shattered the lie that is spread all the time in the news that I am not working for them, that I do not care.
I care, and I am doing it, and we will succeed in it.


We also talked about President Trump's vision, because we are currently in with countries that are talking about the possibility of absorbing a great many Gazans. This is important, because in the end this is what needs to happen.

The third issue - Turkey. Turkey wants to establish military bases in Syria, and this is a danger to Israel.


We oppose this, we are working against this. I told President Trump, who is my friend, also a friend of Erdogan: 'If we need your help - we will talk to you about it.'

And the fourth and final issue - tariffs. President Trump asked the countries to reduce their trade deficit with the United States to zero. I told him: 'It is not that difficult for us. "We'll do it." It's the least we can do for the United States and its president, who do so much for us.

It was a very good visit, a very warm visit, and there are other things you'll hear about later."

Report in the British Times :
As the US seeks an agreement with it, Iran has for the first time provided long-range missile stockpiles to Shiite militias in Iraq

The British Times reports that Iran has provided its proxy forces in Iraq with new missile stockpiles, including various types of long-range missiles capable of reaching Europe, thereby increasing the Iranian regime's military footprint in the region despite President Trump's threats to exact a price from Iran for its militias' actions.

According to the report in the Times, the weapons shipments were delivered to Shiite militias in Iraq last week by the Iranian Air Force, and this is the first time that missiles of this type are in the hands of Shiite militias in Iraq.
