Their appearance at the memorial, which commemorates the Ghetto Uprising during the Second World War, occurred on the sidelines of a U.S.-sponsored conference on Middle Eastern issues in the Polish capital.

The two-day meeting has seen signs of a warming of ties between Israel and a number of its regional neighbours after Netanyahu met with several delegates from Arab countries on Wednesday.

Pence and Netanyahu also visited Warsaw's Jewish Museum, where they signed a guest book and held a bilateral meeting.

Pence is leading a U.S. delegation that also includes Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and White House adviser Jared Kushner - the son-in-law of President Donald Trump - as Washington attempts to build a coalition against what it says is malign behaviour in the region emanating from Iran.
