Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that U.S. President Donald Trump will receive the Israel Prize, one of the country’s most prestigious honors, traditionally awarded to Israeli citizens or residents. Speaking alongside Trump at a press conference at Mar-a-Lago, Netanyahu praised Trump as Israel’s strongest ally, citing his significant contributions to Israel and the Jewish people. Netanyahu also invited Trump to visit Israel for Independence Day celebrations. The announcement comes amid uncertainty surrounding the Gaza peace deal, as negotiations risk stalling before reaching a complex second phase focused on governance and reconstruction of the war-torn Palestinian territory.
