Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented a symbolic golden pager to US President Donald Trump during their summit meeting at the White House in Washington, marking a significant moment in US-Israel relations.

Inscribed with the words "Press with both hands," the pager serves as a direct reference to explosive devices that detonated when handled by Hezbollah operatives. The inscription was strategically designed to ensure maximum impact on the target. Upon receiving the gift, President Trump said it was "a great operation."

According to the Prime Minister's Office, "The pager represents the prime minister's pivotal decision that transformed the course of the war and initiated the process of breaking Hezbollah's resolve. This strategic operation exemplifies Israel's military might, technological advancement, and tactical innovation in confronting its adversaries."
