Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his staff meet with Democratic senators Chris Coons (Delaware) and Richard Blumenthal (Connecticut) in his Jerusalem office.

Both senators were in Munich over the weekend to attend the annual security conference there. Both men have been supportive of Israel’s campaign against Hamas, while expressing concern over Gazan civilian casualties.

In October, after visiting Israel, Blumenthal said that the US would offer “unshakable and unwavering support” and would not dictate Israel’s approach.
