Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets with a delegation from the US pro-Israel lobby AIPAC at his office in Jerusalem.

Netanyahu thanks AIPAC for its work to boost ties between Israel and the US.

“Superpowers need alliances. So a small country like Israel definitely needs alliances,” Netanyahu says, according to a statement from his office.

Netanyahu also briefs the delegation on Iran and efforts to expand the Abraham accords, the statement says.

Among those participating in the meeting were National Security Council Director Tzachi Hanegbi, AIPAC president Michael Tuchin, AIPAC executive director Howard Kohr, AIPAC-Israel director Cameron Brown and members of the AIPAC board of directors.
