President Donald Trump told Fox News that U.S. funding for Israel would end after this year, citing an agreement he said he reached with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu months earlier. Trump said Washington would still help Israel if needed. The report did not establish which forms of aid would end, and the State Department had not immediately clarified his remarks.
Why it matters
Israel faces uncertainty over future U.S. funding until Washington specifies which aid programs would stop and how the change would be implemented.
