Vice President JD Vance is expected to visit Israel this week as part of a push by the Trump administration for the implementation of the agreement to end the Gaza war, four Israeli officials and one U.S. official with knowledge of the plan said.
Why it matters: The implementation of the first phase of the deal was mostly successful with the release of 20 live Israeli hostages, close to 2000 Palestinian prisoners and detainees released, an initial Israeli withdrawal from large parts of Gaza and a ceasefire.
