U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly endorsed Benjamin Netanyahu for Prime Minister of Israel, a first in U.S.-Israel relations.

The move comes after Trump's past endorsement of Viktor Orbán, who lost an election, and amid U.S. opposition to Netanyahu over the conflict with Iran.

Man Convicted of Bribing Former Presidential Adviser for Government Favors

Mazid Hamdan was convicted of bribery by the Haifa District Court for paying Ze’ev Dolinsky, a former senior adviser to ex-President Reuven Rivlin, to help advance requests with government ministries. Hamdan admitted the offenses under a plea agreement, and a joint recommendation for a six-and-a-half-month community service sentence has been made. The bribes facilitated various requests, including planning approvals and passport applications, between 2018 and 2020. This conviction is part of a broader case that includes Nissim Cohen, who previously admitted to bribery and money laundering charges.
