President Donald Trump hosted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at a dinner Monday night, with the two meeting at a key moment and lavishing praise on each other amid efforts to reach a ceasefire in Gaza and determine the course of negotiations with Iran.

Trump has largely focused on expanding the Abraham Accords, an agreement in his first term that led to normalization of relations between Israel and some Arab nations. He's also proposed a relocation plan for Gaza's two million Palestinians, which Netanyahu endorsed at the time.
