Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Netanyahu and Trump Set for High-Stakes Talks at White House
Caption: Netanyahu and Trump Set for High-Stakes Talks at White House. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has arrived in Washington for his first meeting with US President Donald Trump since his return to office. The two leaders will discuss Israel's "victory over Hamas," efforts to free hostages, and countering Iran’s influence in the region. The meeting comes as US and Arab mediators work on the next phase of negotiations to end the war in Gaza and secure hostage releases. Netanyahu has emphasized the importance of "strengthening security, broadening the circle of peace, and achieving a remarkable era of peace through strength.” Hamas has stated it will not release additional hostages unless Israel agrees to a full withdrawal from Gaza and a permanent end to the war. Netanyahu faces growing pressure from members of his coalition to resume military operations once the first phase of the ceasefire expires in early March. Despite negotiations, Netanyahu maintains that Israel is committed to eliminating Hamas and securing the return of all remaining hostages. On Sunday, an Israeli airstrike in central Gaza targeted a vehicle, injuring five people, including a child. The Israeli military justified the strike, claiming the vehicle bypassed a checkpoint and violated the ceasefire terms. With tensions high and diplomatic efforts ongoing, Netanyahu's visit to Washington could shape the next phase of the Israel-Gaza conflict.
