The White House on Friday issued a correction that crossed out Israel as the location of Jerusalem, even though the city is the nation's capital.

In an afternoon update to an email distributing President Obama's remarks at former Israeli statesman Shimon Peres' funeral, the White House Press Office wrote, "CORRECTED: Please see the remarks below with a corrected header." The corrected header printed the location of the remarks as "Mount Herzl, Jerusalem, Israel," with the word "Israel" struck out. In the first version sent Friday morning, "Israel" was not struck out.
