EXCLUSIVE: Sharri Markson meets with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has spoken exclusively to Sky News host Sharri Markson about the war he's fighting, the threat of Iran to Western civilisation and his determination for the Saudi Arabia normalisation deal to go ahead.
“I was privileged to spend more than 45 minutes with Netanyahu yesterday afternoon in his prime ministerial offices in Jerusalem,” Ms Markson said.
“Our meeting was held just a few hours before the Prime Minister took a call with Joe Biden to discuss the retaliation strike on Iran after it fired 200 missiles on Israel last week.”

Thanks Sky News and Sharri, finally a voice, for I’m sure a majority of Australians, who feel as strongly as you do. I and many others stand strong with Israel 🇦🇺❤️🇸🇻

[@rogerramjet2340]

It’s not just Jewish Australians who are outraged. Nominally Christian Australians like me are just as appalled and cannot wait to vote Labor out.
