JD Vance said he is "not getting involved" in Israel's upcoming elections, according to Al Jazeera English, stepping back from Donald Trump's explicit backing of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Vance's comments come as Israel prepares for elections scheduled for October 27.
Trump has already thrown his support behind Netanyahu ahead of the vote, marking a departure from Vance's more cautious stance on the contentious Israeli political race.
