In a pivotal meeting, Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer met U.S. President-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, as reported by Axios citing Israeli and U.S. officials. The discussions centered on strategic issues, aiming to bolster the U.S.-Israel alliance amid escalating regional tensions.
