Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet with US President Joe Biden on September 21 when both leaders are in New York for the annual UN General Assembly, according to a diplomatic source.

The sit-down is scheduled for the same day Netanyahu is slated to address the UN.

It remains unclear whether there will be an additional meeting at the White House in Washington, as Netanyahu has been seeking.
