Following the cancellation of a planned visit by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Washington this week, talks have resumed between Israeli and U.S. officials regarding potential military operations in Gaza. The White House confirmed that efforts are underway to find a suitable date for the meeting that would accommodate both parties.
No finalized date has been set yet, but discussions indicate that Israeli officials such as strategic affairs minister Ron Dermer and national security adviser Tzachi Hanegbi are expected to be part of the delegation visiting Washington. The purpose of the meeting is to address the proposed ground invasion of the southern Gaza city of Rafah, which has been a focal point of the conflict.
