Israel Hayom, citing Trump associates:

Netanyahu is deceiving us, not honoring our agreements, and has no intention of moving forward with the understandings.

JD Vance:

Our attitude is we don’t want Ukraine to collapse. We obviously want Ukraine to remain a sovereign country.

But Russia can’t expect to be given territory they haven’t even conquered yet. And that’s one of the things they put down in that initial peace plan.

We can only lead these guys to the well, we can’t force them to drink.

Trump Poised to Announce Gaza Ceasefire Deal

Trump is expected to announce a comprehensive Gaza ceasefire plan by the weekend.

U.S official to Israeli Hayom:

The proposed deal aims to end the conflict without fully meeting Hamas’s demands, offering a partially cooperative approach from Israel.

One option being discussed includes Hamas’s involvement in Gaza’s future civil administration.

Another option under consideration is granting Hamas leaders immunity from assassination to secure their agreement.

Netanyahu must decide whether to take this risk, potentially triggering a coalition crisis.
