Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other senior Israeli officials extended their condolences Sunday in the wake of the death of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, with many describing him as one of Israel’s most devoted supporters.
“Lindsey understood that the security of Israel and America are inseparable,” Netanyahu said in an official statement.
“Israel has lost one of its greatest friends. America has lost a great patriot. I have lost a beloved friend,” Netanyahu added.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog, Defense Minister Israel Katz, Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, and former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett each took to the social platform X to share their own tributes, with all of them describing Graham as a genuine friend and one of the strongest advocates Israel had in the United States.
