A reunion of sorts tops our other headlines. Former US President Donald Trump and

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held their first in-person talks in

We're certainly eager to have one and we're working on it. I think there's been some movement because of our

military pressure that we exerted. I hope that there will be sufficient movement

to get the deal completed.
