- Social media mogul Elon Musk will reportedly meet Monday in Israel with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other leaders in the country, amid accusations by civil rights groups that he amplified anti-Jewish hate speech on his platform X, formerly named Twitter.
- Netanyahu earlier this month reportedly asked Musk to try to balance on X the right to free speech so that the site also doesn’t also allow hate speech.
- Representatives for Musk and Netanyahu have not confirmed the meeting.

Musk To Meet With Netanyahu, Israel Leaders Following Controversial Reposts
FILE - Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Motors Inc., introduces the Model X car at the company's headquarters Tuesday, Sept. 29, 2015, in Fremont, Calif. Musk may want to send “tweet” back to the birds, but the ubiquitous term for posting on the site he now calls X is here to stay, at least for now. For one, the word is still plastered all over the website formerly known as Twitter. Write a post, you still need to press a blue button that says “tweet” to publish it. To repost it, you still tap “retweet.” (AP Photo/Marcio Jose Sanchez, File)
