The Prime Minister's Office announced today that last week, former President Donald Trump called Prime Minister Netanyahu and congratulated him on the powerful blows dealt to Hezbollah.
Hours before the first conversation between Prime Minister Netanyahu and outgoing President Joe Biden, the Prime Minister's Office published for the first time that last week, former President Trump called the Prime Minister and congratulated him on the achievements against Hezbollah.
The conversation took place after the exploding beeper attack, which was reportedly carried out by Israel according to foreign publications, and after the assassination of Nasrallah in an underground bunker by Air Force bombers.
From the Prime Minister's Office, it was reported that Trump called the Prime Minister: "And congratulated him on the decisive and powerful actions Israel took against Hezbollah." Additionally, it was announced from Netanyahu's office that the American Republican senator, Lindsey Graham, was also part of the conversation.
Publishing the content of the conversation just hours before the planned call between the Prime Minister and outgoing President Joe Biden for the first time in weeks could be part of a calculated signal to the White House, where the Prime Minister is showing a willingness to work with Biden's political rivals if the President tries to pressure Israel to stop the war or avoid a decisive blow to Hezbollah and Iran.
