Progress in Gaza Talks as Netanyahu’s Six-Hour Meeting Concludes

DID Press: Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s key meeting with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in the United States concluded after six hours of negotiations. Israeli media report rising tensions among domestic politicians and growing anger from extremist groups over the terms of Donald Trump’s proposed plan, though sources close to the prime minister insist he will maintain his core demands regarding Gaza’s future.

As part of U.S. diplomatic efforts to manage Gaza crisis, Netanyahu’s meeting with Trump’s senior advisers took place on Sunday and ended after six hours of talks. Israeli outlets said the content of Trump’s proposal had triggered internal concerns and opposition, with extremist factions strongly rejecting any perceived government concessions.

Sources close to Netanyahu told reporters that the prime minister would not compromise on his main stance. In an interview with NBC, Netanyahu emphasized that a final agreement is within reach but must “guarantee Israel’s vital interests.”

According to Israel’s state media, citing sources close to the prime minister, progress has been made following Netanyahu’s talks with Witkoff, and the likelihood of Israel accepting Trump’s plan has gained momentum.
