U.S. President Donald Trump announced his support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ahead of the upcoming Israeli election on October 27. Trump posted on his Truth Social platform, stating that Netanyahu has been a "great Prime Minister" and an "even greater partner for peace" in the fight against Iran. He asserted that Iran has been systematically destroyed militarily and economically, and that "unless it changes its ways and that fast, we will be ending it soon."
