♦ Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the country's highest civilian honour, the Israel Prize for Peace', to U.S. President Donald Trump, following high-level bilateral talks in Florida. In the 80-year history of the prize, it has never before been awarded to a non-Israeli citizen, nor has the Peace category ever been formally conferred.

♦ The decision follows a rule amendment approved in July 2025, enabling foreign nationals to receive the honour under exceptional circumstances.
