White House Scrambles to Preserve Gaza Deal Amid Concerns About Netanyahu

The White House is urgently working to preserve a fragile Gaza peace deal amid rising concerns that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may abandon the agreement. Vice President JD Vance is traveling to Israel to join key negotiators, including Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, in efforts to keep the cease-fire intact after recent violence threatened its stability. President Trump has warned that continued attacks by Hamas could lead to the United States supporting a forceful Israeli response, but he maintains that the current unrest is not representative of Hamas leadership and believes negotiations can continue. The administration is also focused on delivering humanitarian aid, retrieving the bodies of deceased hostages, and addressing unresolved issues such as the demilitarization of Hamas and the establishment of a stabilization force led by Egypt. Despite ongoing accusations of truce violations from both sides, officials remain committed to maintaining the cease-fire and stabilizing the region.
