Netanyahu Says Meeting With Trump Focused on Freeing of Gaza Hostages

Trump's special envoy upbeat on Israel, Hamas ceasefire deal by end of week
-
WASHINGTON - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on July 9 that his meeting with US President Donald Trump focused on freeing hostages held in Gaza, and stressed his determination to "eliminate" the military and governmental capabilities of Hamas.
Mr. Netanyahu said on social media platform X that the leaders also discussed the consequences and possibilities of "the great victory we achieved over Iran," following an aerial war in June in which the United States joined Israeli attacks on the Islamic republic's nuclear sites.
Mr. Netanyahu is making his third US visit since Mr. Trump took office on Jan. 20, and earlier told reporters that while he did not think Israel's campaign in the Palestinian enclave was done, negotiators are "certainly working" on a ceasefire.
Mr. Trump met Mr. Netanyahu on July 8 for the second time in two days to discuss the situation in Gaza, with the President's Middle East envoy indicating that Israel and Palestinian militant group Hamas were nearing an agreement on a ceasefire deal after nearly two years of war.
