Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet President Donald Trump in the United States on December 29, a spokeswoman for the premier’s office said on Tuesday.
It will be Netanyahu’s fifth visit to meet Trump in the US since the start of the year and comes after the prime minister said he expected the second phase of the US-sponsored ceasefire plan for Gaza to begin soon.
“The meeting between President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu will take place Monday, December 29,” Shosh Bedrosian, spokeswoman for the prime minister’s office, said, without providing details of the location or duration of the visit.
Israel’s Channel 12 reported that Netanyahu and Trump were expected to meet twice during an eight-day visit to the United States by the Israeli prime minister. (AFP)
