US President Donald Trump on Sunday endorsed his ally Benjamin Netanyahu before Israel’s close-fought parliamentary election on October 27, providing a boost to the veteran prime minister’s bid to win a new mandate.
Netanyahu touted his close relationship with the US president in a video released by his Likud party, saying that together they had “crushed Iran” and adding that re-election would allow him to work with Trump to “elminate the Iranian threat over the next two years, or even sooner”.
