Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his entourage will leave Washington DC, on Saturday night to return to Israel on Wing of Zion.
His six-day trip saw him meet with US President Donald Trump and the senior members of the new administration.
As he almost always does on foreign trips, Netanyahu extended his stay to remain abroad over Shabbat, during which three more hostages will be released from captivity in Gaza.
