Watch: Biden set to land in Israel
US President Joe Biden is set to land in Israel in the next hour.
Both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Isaac Herzog are expected to be on hand at Ben Gurion airport to greet Biden, before meetings with him in Tel Aviv.
Security is extremely tight, as Gazan terrorists have repeatedly targeted the airport with rockets, and officials have released little information about his schedule for the approximately five-hour visit here.
You can watch a livestream of the landing here.
