Prime Minister Netanyahu heads back to Jerusalem after crucial talks in Washington, set to land in Israel at 6 p.m. local time.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has departed Washington following a series of high-level meetings with U.S. President Donald Trump and senior American officials.
Netanyahu’s return to Israel comes at a pivotal moment in the Gaza war and ongoing negotiations over President Trump’s sweeping peace plan. The Israeli leader is scheduled to land at Ben-Gurion Airport around 6:00 p.m. local time.
His visit to Washington was marked by intense discussions on hostage release, the dismantling of Hamas’ terror infrastructure, and the long-term security of Israel. Netanyahu is expected to brief his Cabinet and security chiefs immediately upon arrival.
As Israel faces mounting diplomatic and military challenges, the Prime Minister’s swift return signals urgency in aligning the U.S.-Israel strategy while preparing for the next phase of decision-making on the battlefield and at the negotiating table.
