The Israeli Prime Minister is preparing to be received for the third time in less than six months by the American president, who is pushing for a truce in the Gaza Strip.
He announced on Sunday, July 6, that his meeting with Donald Trump on Monday in Washington could "contribute" to reaching a ceasefire and hostage release agreement in Gaza, for which Israel and the Palestinian Hamas are scheduled to begin indirect negotiations in Doha. "I think the meeting with President Trump can certainly contribute to advancing this outcome that we all hope for," the Israeli Prime Minister declared before flying to the United States.

He is preparing to be received for the third time in less than six months by American President Donald Trump, who is pushing for a truce in the Gaza Strip, where new Israeli bombardments left 26 dead on Sunday, according to the Civil Defense of the Palestinian territory ravaged by 21 months of war. "Bring all our hostages home"
Benyamin Netanyahu assured that he had given his negotiators "clear instructions": to reach an agreement "on the terms we have accepted." The Prime Minister had deemed "unacceptable" on Saturday the "changes Hamas is seeking to make to the initial proposal." When asked whether indirect negotiations had begun in Doha, the Qatari Foreign Ministry did not immediately respond.
Benyamin Netanyahu has an "important mission" in Washington, Israeli President Isaac Herzog declared after meeting with him Sunday morning. According to him, it is to "advance an agreement to bring all our hostages home." An initial one-week truce in November 2023, followed by a second two-month truce in early 2025, have allowed the return of many hostages in exchange for the release of Palestinians. On March 18, in the absence of an agreement on the continuation of the ceasefire, Israel resumed its offensive in Gaza, where Hamas, considered a terrorist movement by the United States, the European Union and Israel, took power in 2007.
