The Israeli army, which had urged civilians to evacuate Jabaliya citing Hamas infrastructure, declined to comment on recent strikes. Netanyahu claimed Israeli forces were days away from a major escalation aimed at “completing the mission” by decisively dismantling Hamas.

But a familiar ally seems cut out of all the dealmaking. Donald Trump is on familiar ground in Saudi Arabia, where he made his first trip as president back in 2017. The US president may have said no to ceremonial Arabic coffee, but he seems ready to approve a landmark civilian nuclear agreement – one that no longer seems linked to Riyadh normalising ties with Israel. c7e917a4-3025-11f0-8356-005056bf762bTue, 13 May 2025 18:12:06 GMTFrançois PICARDhttps://www.france24.com/en/video/20250513-gulf-widens-between-trump-and-netanyahu-on-all-major-issues-hostages-syria-yemen-iran-turkey Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says there is “no way” Israel will halt its war in Gaza, even if a deal is reached to release more hostages. His comments are likely to complicate talks on a new ceasefire that had seemed to gain momentum after Hamas released the last living American hostage on Monday in a gesture to US President Donald Trump, who is visiting the region but skipping Israel. They pointed to a potentially widening rift between Netanyahu and Trump, who had expressed hope that Monday’s release of Israeli-American soldier Edan Alexander would be a step toward ending the 19-month war.
