US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman arrived for Sunday morning's cabinet meeting following the success of the Arrow 3 weapons test in the United States.

Netanyahu said, "I congratulate Ambassador Friedman and Danny Gold. In recent weeks we conducted secret tests in Alaska in cooperation with the United States - they succeeded beyond our expactations. Israel has the ability to hit any missile launched from Iran or anywhere else."

Ambassador Friedman said: "The cooperation between the two countries is great. It was an unprecedented operation."
