Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with U.S. Senator Tim Sheehy (R-MT) in Washington on Wednesday night, according to Israel Hayom journalist Ariel Kahana. The meeting is part of Netanyahu's ongoing diplomatic visit to the United States, which includes a scheduled summit with President Donald Trump focused on Iran and regional security, as The Zioneer reported. Sheehy, a freshman senator who recently warned the Senate about the threat posed by radical Islam, told Netanyahu that 'friendship is tested in times of distress,' a phrase he reportedly used in a previous speech. The meeting underscores the Israeli government's efforts to maintain bipartisan support in Congress amid the current security challenges. Sheehy's remarks come as the Israeli delegation continues a series of meetings with U.S. lawmakers and senior administration officials.
