Will Netanyahu and Trump talks change U.S. strategy for resolving the Gaza conflict

Earlier, on February 3, it was reported that US President Donald Trump overturned the decision of the administration of the previous President Joe Biden to impose an arms embargo on Israel. The day before, the White House promised not to slow down the sale and shipment of weapons to Israel.

Then it was also noted that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will discuss with the top leadership of the United States ceasefire in Gaza and a number of other regional conflicts that Trump would like to "resolve or mitigate".

The situation in the Middle East escalated on the morning of October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched a massive rocket attack from the Gaza Strip into Israel. Israel began retaliatory strikes the same day.
