Some 200 reporters — Israeli, American and international, half standing around the sides of the room — crowd into the East Wing for the press conference to be held soon by US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The two podiums stand in front of Israeli and American flags.

The meeting between the two leaders has run overtime, as such sit-downs usually do.
