Event Summary

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to meet US President Donald Trump on December 29 to discuss the next phases of the US-sponsored Gaza ceasefire plan. The discussions will focus on key issues such as Hamas disarmament, the governance of post-war Gaza Strip, and the deployment of an international security force. This meeting follows a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas that came into effect in October, which has seen Hamas release 47 out of 48 hostages. While the United States is a primary supporter of Israel, there are areas of tension, particularly concerning the annexation of the West Bank, which Donald Trump and Marco Rubio have opposed. Benjamin Netanyahu has praised Donald Trump for his past actions, including recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital and brokering the Abraham Accords.
