Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to meet U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington on Monday to discuss a possible Gaza ceasefire and broader regional issues, including Iran.
Netanyahu departed Tel Aviv on Sunday for his third visit to the United States since Trump returned to The White House in January. The Israeli leader is also expected to meet senior U.S. officials and members of Congress from both parties during his trip.
The talks come amid ongoing efforts to broker a ceasefire and hostage deal between Israel and Hamas.
“There’s a good chance,” Trump told reporters earlier, referring to the likelihood of an agreement this week. He also hinted at discussions aimed at achieving a “permanent deal with Iran.”
The visit is expected to draw significant protests in Washington, with pro-Palestinian demonstrators calling for an end to U.S. military and diplomatic support for Israel’s campaign in Gaza.
Since the start of Israel’s military operation in Gaza in October 2023, more than 57,000 Palestinians have been killed, according to Gaza health authorities, with the majority reported to be women and children.
Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant face arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
The White House has not released further details on the timing or agenda of Monday’s meeting.
