Donald Trump has become the first U.S. president in decades to address the Knesset, as a landmark ceasefire between Israel and Hamas takes effect.
The visit was marked by tension inside Israel’s parliament when opposition members Ayman Odeh and Ofer Cassif were removed after holding up a sign calling on Trump to “recognize Palestine.”
The U.S.-brokered truce includes the release of 20 Israeli hostages in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners, with mediation from Egypt and Qatar.
