WASHINGTON (CHATNEWSTV) — Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth spoke with Israeli Minister of Defense Israel Katz on Monday to discuss bilateral security cooperation, regional developments, and defense priorities, according to a readout from the Pentagon.

Pentagon Press Secretary John Ullyot said Hegseth reaffirmed the United States’ “100 percent commitment” to Israel’s security and emphasized the “unbreakable bond” between the two nations.
