Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to Washington is primarily focused on Iran and the hostages in Gaza, according to former Mossad official Brigadier General Dr. Amnon Sofrin. The U.S. is pressuring Iran to return to the negotiating table for a new nuclear agreement and is prepared to use force if necessary. Sofrin suggests that the U.S. may deploy units in the Middle East in coordination with Israel. The second major issue is the hostages in Gaza, with around two dozen believed to be alive. Hamas is demanding international guarantees for negotiations, which needs to be discussed between Netanyahu and the U.S. President.
