Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has given US President Donald Trump a golden pager in an apparent reference to Israel's pager attacks in Lebanon last year.
The gift was confirmed by Mr Netanyahu's office, Reuters reported.
In the September 2024 Israeli operation, pagers used by Hezbollah were detonated across Lebanon.
In total, the pager attack, and a second on the following day that activated weaponised walkie-talkies, killed 39 people, including two children, and wounded more than 3,400.
Lebanon and Hezbollah attributed the attacks to Israel and Mr Netanyahu's office later confirmed he approved the order for the attack.
An Israeli official, speaking to the Associated Press on condition of anonymity, said Mr Trump, upon receiving the gift, responded: “That was a major operation.”
White House officials could not immediately be reached for comment.
An image circulated online and carried by the Reuters press agency shows a golden pager mounted on a wooden plinth with the inscription: "To President Donald J Trump. Our greatest friend and greatest ally. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu."
The pager attacks came as Israel and Hezbollah traded cross-border fire, following the Lebanese militant group's decision to launch attacks on Israel in the wake of the Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel in October 2023.
The clashes escalated into all-out war in September 2024, with massive Israeli air strikes in Lebanon and an Israeli ground invasion of the country's south.
A ceasefire was implemented in November 2024. Lebanon's Health Ministry said more than 3,700 people in Lebanon had been killed since Israel launched its invasion, with 1.2 million people displaced from their homes.
At least 75 Israelis were killed in the conflict, according to Israeli tallies, including about 50 soldiers.
Mr Netanyahu is the first foreign leader to visit the White House since Mr Trump took office last month.
Overnight, the US president doubled down on his controversial proposal for the US to "take over" and redevelop Gaza, a proposal he first made during his meeting with Mr Netanyahu earlier this week.
Large areas of the coastal Palestinian enclave have been left in ruins by an Israeli assault which was launched in retaliation for the Hamas-led attacks on October 7, 2023.
Palestinian authorities say more than 46,000 people were killed by Israeli strikes on Gaza before a ceasefire came into effect last month. Hamas fighters killed more than 1,200 Israelis in the October 7 attacks, according to Israeli tallies.
