Two senior-level sources tell ABC News that Republican candidate Donald Trump was to meet with Benjamin Netanyahu Sunday morning at Trump Tower. And an aide to Democrat Hillary Clinton confirmed a planned meeting with the Israeli leader Sunday as well.
Netanyahu has been in New York for the United Nations General Assembly meeting.
The meetings will take place a day before both candidates face off at their first general election presidential debate Monday night at Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York.
