Trump argued that "Hamas didn’t want to make a deal" in a statement to the press at the White House. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel and the US are considering alternative options for bringing the hostages home in a Friday statement,

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — A panel of judges at the International Criminal Court reported Hungary to the court’s oversight organization for failing to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he visited Budapest in April, saying the move undercut the court’s ability to bring suspects to justice.

Israel still believes Hamas is ultimately interested in a deal, “but they’re trying to squeeze every possible advantage, provoking and appeasing all the extremist factions within Gaza,” Israeli officials told The Jerusalem Post on Friday.

Calling Hamas unwilling to negotiate, President Trump urged Israel to "clean it up" in Gaza and "finish the job," after US-brokered truce talks broke down and hostilities resumed.

Israel’s Knesset has approved legislation to extend Israeli sovereignty over parts of the West Bank. The move, championed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has sparked global outrage and raised alarms about the future of peace in the region.

Donald Trump wants the war in Gaza solved, but the possibility of a ceasefire deal has moved only a few inches toward the finish line.

This meeting comes ahead of Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer's meeting with US Special Envoy to Syria Tom Barrack and Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani in Paris. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with Druze spiritual leader Sheikh Muwafaq Tarif at the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem on Thursday.
