Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declined an invitation from U.S. President Donald Trump to attend a peace summit in Egypt. The decision was made due to the proximity of the upcoming Jewish holiday, Simchat Torah.
Netanyahu"s refusal to participate in the summit highlights the significance of the holiday within the Jewish community. The summit was intended to address ongoing peace efforts in the region.
This development follows a series of interactions between Trump and Netanyahu, including a recent meeting with families of Israeli hostages at the Knesset. For more details on Netanyahu"s decision, refer to recent developments in the ongoing political landscape.
