Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has arrived in Washington for an important meeting with US President Donald Trump. Netanyahu emphasized the strength of the Israeli-American alliance and his personal friendship with Trump. He plans to discuss Israel's war against Hamas, the release of hostages, and the Iranian terror axis. Additionally, Netanyahu aims to broaden the circle of peace and achieve normalization with Saudi Arabia. However, normalization faces challenges due to Saudi Arabia's demand for an end to the war in Gaza as a prerequisite. Netanyahu will also meet with Trump's special envoy to the Middle East to discuss negotiations on the hostage deal.
