US President Donald Trump’s expected visit on Monday will last about four hours and include meetings with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and families of Israeli hostages, as well as the president’s Knesset address, according to Channel 12.

Trump is expected to land in Israel at 9:20 a.m. on Monday and depart at 1:00 p.m., the network reports, citing an unsourced schedule.

Upon arrival, a brief ceremony will be held at Ben Gurion Airport before Trump proceeds to the Knesset, where he is reportedly scheduled to deliver an address to the plenum at 11:00 a.m.

Prior to his speech, Trump will meet with Netanyahu in the premier’s Knesset office. The two leaders will then meet with families of hostages in the Knesset’s Chagall Hall, according to the network.
