U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly reiterated his support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, urging Israelis to vote for his reelection. In a post on the social media platform Truth Social, Trump stated that he and Netanyahu need to "finish what we started" against Iran.

Trump recalled a previous endorsement of Netanyahu made a week prior, highlighting their successful collaboration. He detailed military operations against Iran, claiming the country has lost its navy and air force, and its army and economy are in dire straits. "When you go to vote, please remember that Bibi has been a great warrior prime minister," Trump wrote, directly calling for votes for Netanyahu to "finish what we started."

The renewed statement follows reports that Netanyahu had sought additional public backing from the U.S. President. According to Axios, the prime minister aimed to bolster his standing before the elections, as polls indicated his coalition might not secure a parliamentary majority.
