WEB DESK: A historic address by US President Donald Trump to the Israeli Parliament (Knesset) was interrupted by a significant uproar.
While the president was outlining Middle East peace initiatives and discussing Israel’s security, a member of the opposition interrupted with loud protests.
Eyewitnesses reported that the lawmaker attempted to approach President Trump, prompting the swift intervention of security personnel, who removed the protester from the chamber.
The session was briefly suspended due to the disruption but later resumed, allowing President Trump to conclude his speech. During his address, he reaffirmed his commitment to strengthening ties between Israel and the United States.
Both the Israeli Prime Minister and the US delegation expressed regret over the incident, emphasizing that while dissent is an integral part of democracy, breaching parliamentary protocols is unacceptable. Security agencies have launched an investigation into the matter.
