Netanyahu to meet Trump at White House as Israel, Hamas discuss ceasefire

UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – Trump and Netanyahu discussed relocating 2.2 million Palestinians from Gaza to other countries to help end the 21-month conflict, amid opposition from key Arab states, officials said.

  • On Tuesday evening, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met again with U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington to focus on ceasefire talks concerning the conflict in Gaza.
  • The meeting followed a Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, that killed around 1,200 people and took 251 hostages, prompting a 21-month war in Gaza.
  • Netanyahu emphasized retaining Israeli security control over Gaza and expressed hope for peace opportunities while both leaders support a U.S.-backed ceasefire proposal to pause fighting and free hostages.
  • Netanyahu expressed optimism about achieving peace and highlighted ongoing efforts to end the conflict in Gaza, while Trump’s envoy, Steve Witkoff, mentioned that a 60-day ceasefire agreement is being negotiated with the goal of establishing lasting peace.
  • The talks suggest potential progress toward ending hostilities, though Israel insists it will not halt fighting until hostages return and Hamas is dismantled, while high casualties continue in Gaza.
