Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu joined President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at Sen. Lindsey Graham's funeral Tuesday at Washington National Cathedral. Netanyahu and Zelenskyy were seen speaking before the service, after each had met Trump separately at the White House. Trump eulogized Graham as a tough Senate giant who worked to ensure America's enemies lost. Netanyahu said the United States lost a patriot, Israel lost one of its greatest friends and supporters, and he lost a dear friend committed to both countries' security and the fight against antisemitism.
