Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented U.S. President Donald Trump with a golden pager during their meeting in Washington on February 4, an apparent reference to Israel’s 2024 operation in Lebanon, where Hezbollah-linked communication devices were targeted.
Netanyahu’s office confirmed the gift, which was mounted on a wooden stand, was meant to symbolize Israel’s September 2024 operation, when hand-held radios and pagers detonated across Lebanon. The attack, followed by a second strike on weaponized walkie-talkies, resulted in 39 deaths and over 3,400 injuries.
The Lebanese government and Hezbollah blamed Israel, while Netanyahu later acknowledged he had approved the operation.
The meeting in Washington comes as Israel and the U.S. discuss regional security and military cooperation, with both leaders reaffirming their stance on deterring Hezbollah’s activities. Netanyahu’s symbolic gift underscores Israel’s approach to electronic warfare tactics.
