Netanyahu heads to US for first Trump meeting since war on Iran

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet US President Donald Trump at the White House for the first time since the start of the Iran war, over which they have publicly disagreed, AFP reports.

Relations between Netanyahu and Trump have occasionally appeared strained in recent months, but both have sought to tone things down.

The meeting is expected to be dominated by the war, which began with US-Israeli strikes on Iran in late February, as Washington says it wants to give negotiations a chance.

Israel has not taken part in the latest round of hostilities between the United States and Iran, which flared earlier this month after an April ceasefire collapsed.
