Netanyahu could be the first foreign leader to meet Trump at the White House, according to CNN.

This was reported by CNN citing sources, as conveyed by Ukrinform.

According to the channel's sources, the planning of the visit is still incomplete, and an official date has not been set. American and Israeli officials described the visit plans as preliminary.

However, it has been reported that the leaders of the two countries discussed Netanyahu's visit to Washington during a phone conversation a few days prior to last week's inauguration.

Meanwhile, Trump's ambassador to the Middle East, Steve Vitkoff, traveled to the region this week, including a visit to Israel, where arrangements for the visit might have been finalized, according to CNN.

Netanyahu's spokesperson stated on social media that no official invitation for the visit has been received yet.

As reported by Ukrinform, on Sunday, Axios cited sources saying that the White House instructed the Pentagon to lift the ban imposed by former President Joe Biden's administration on the supply of 2000-pound bombs to Israel.

In early May of last year, the U.S. halted arms supplies to Israel.
