President Donald Trump was briefly silenced Monday as Israeli politicians yelled 'terrorist!" at him as he spoke to the nation's parliament.

The U.S. president has just received a standing ovation from members of the Knesset as he took his place behind the podium, but two left-wing politicians began shouting at him in protest as he praised his special envoy Steve Witkoff in a speech marking the end of Israel’s war on Gaza.

The interruption left Trump briefly silenced as he was seen clearly confused by what was going on.

Hadash Party head Ayman Odeh and Knesset member Ofer Cassif were ejected from the chamber after shouting "terrorist" at Trump. They held up signs that read "genocide" and "recognize Palestine."

"That was very efficient," Trump said, as Cassif and Odeh were marched out of the hall by Knesset security.

"Back to Steve," Trump said, after the commotion settled down. “I call him Henry Kissinger, who doesn’t leak.”
