Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said Charlie Kirk — the Trump ally who was killed on Wednesday while speaking at an event in Utah — “was murdered for speaking truth and defending freedom”.
“A lion-hearted friend of Israel, he fought the lies and stood tall for Judeo-Christian civilization,” Netanyahu said on the X platform.
“I spoke to him only two weeks ago and invited him to Israel. Sadly, that visit will not take place,” he said.
“His boundless pride in America and his valiant belief in free speech will leave a lasting impact,” Netanyahu added.
