President Biden spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday, Netanyahu’s office confirmed to Fox News.

Netanyahu’s office characterized the call as "warm and friendly" and said that it lasted for roughly an hour.

"The leaders noted their personal relations of years, and said they would act together to continue to strengthen the alliance between Israel and the U.S.," the statement from Netanyahu’s office said.

Among the topics that were said to be discussed were promoting peace agreements, challenges in the region – including the Iranian threat – and the COVID-19 crisis.
