US President Donald Trump invited Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to a meeting in the White House on Feb. 4, the prime minister’s office said on Tuesday.
“Prime Minister Netanyahu is the first foreign leader to be invited to the White House during US President Trump’s second term,” the office added.
On Monday, Trump said that Netanyahu will visit the US “very soon.”
Recently, Trump proposed moving Palestinians out of the Gaza Strip and said Jordan and Egypt should take more Palestinians from Gaza, which has drawn sharp criticism.
Both countries reiterated their rejection of the resettlement of Palestinians after Trump’s call to “clean out” the enclave.
Hell…
“When you look at the Gaza Strip, it’s been hell for so many years…There have been various civilizations on that strip. It didn’t start here. It started thousands of years before, and there’s always been violence associated with it. You could get people living in areas that are a lot safer and maybe a lot better and maybe a lot more comfortable,” Trump told reporters on Monday.
Trump’s proposal came a week after a ceasefire agreement took effect in Gaza on Jan. 19, suspending Israel’s genocidal war that has killed more than 47,300 Palestinians, most of them women and children, and injured more than 111,000 since Oct. 7, 2023.
The Israeli onslaught has left more than 11,000 people missing, with widespread destruction and a humanitarian crisis that has claimed the lives of many elderly people and children in one of the worst global humanitarian disasters ever.
The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants in November last year for Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave according to Anadolu.
