Binyamin Netanyahu has asked to see Donald Trump during his visit to the United States this week, risking a further increase in tension with the White House.
The Israeli prime minister, 74, is in Washington for a planned address to Congress on Wednesday. He is reported to be meeting with Kamala Harris, the vice-president, later in the day for a private meeting at the White House to discuss the war in Gaza, as well as plans to free the remaining hostages held by Hamas.
