Israel is mourning the loss of Senator Lindsey Graham, a longtime friend of the Jewish state and one of Israel's strongest allies in the U.S. Senate. Israeli leaders honored his unwavering support for Israel's security and his commitment to the U.S.-Israel alliance.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly considering traveling to the United States to attend Graham's funeral. If the trip moves forward, he is also expected to meet with President Donald Trump.

Graham's legacy as a steadfast supporter of Israel will be remembered by leaders and citizens in both nations.
