Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to meet United States President Donald Trump on December 29 to discuss the next steps for Gaza following a recently brokered ceasefire. The talks are expected to focus on advancing a peace plan that includes disarming Hamas, establishing a Palestinian technocratic administration, and deploying a multinational force as Israeli troops withdraw. Netanyahu has expressed doubts about the effectiveness of a multinational force in disarming Hamas but remains committed to the goal. The meeting may also address stalled security negotiations with Syria and broader regional issues, amid concerns over arms sales to Saudi Arabia and their impact on Israel's military advantage. The announcement comes as American officials visit Israel to discuss humanitarian aid and regional stability, highlighting ongoing diplomatic efforts in the region.
