Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world.

Diplomatic reporter Lazar Berman and US bureau chief Jacob Magid join host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today’s episode.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed a joint session of the US Congress yesterday. We discuss what was said — and unsaid — in the hour-long speech and hear about who was in the room in support (or dissent) of the premier.

We learn about other meetings of note on Netanyahu’s agenda and finally, we get a firsthand account of flying on the premier’s newly broken-in Wings of Zion airplane.
