@WSJ 3 \ The Israeli official said: "Hamas understands that the ball is in their court. We see pressure that did not exist before and hope that it will show results. There is relatively more optimism than a few days ago"

1 / במהלך ישיבת קבינט המלחמה אמש (ראשון) הוחלט לנסות ולמצות את הלחץ של קטאר ומצרים על חמאס להסכים למתווה עסקת החטופים ולא להרחיב בשלב זה את המנדט של צוות המו"מ, כך לפי שלושה מקורות שמעורים בתכני הישיבה
2 / למה זה חשוב: ראש המוסד דדי ברנע, ראש השב"כ רונן בר ונציג צה"ל האלוף ניצן אלון המליצו פה אחד לקבינט המלחמה להמתין עוד כמה ימים כדי לבחון האם חמאס מחזיר תשובה חדשה שמתאפשרת התקדמות למו"מ רציני ומפורט יותר על עסקה
3 / במהלך סוף השבוע בעקבות שיחותיו של ראש ה-CIA ביל ברנס בדוחא ובקהיר קיימו המתווכות סבב שיחות נוסף עם חמאס והפעילו לחצים נוספים, כך לפי מקורות שמעורים בנושא. הקטארים והמצרים עידכנו את ישראל במאמצים שהן עושות וביקשו שישראל לא תנקוט בשום מהלך ותמתין לראות האם המאמצים נושאים פרי

1 \ BREAKING: President Biden said in an interview with MSNBC that he would like to come to Israel again to address the Knesset and speak to the Israeli people. Biden refused to specify whether there are discussions on such a possibility and refused to discuss it further
2 \ Biden was asked what he meant when he was caught on a hot mic saying that he would hold a "come to Jesus meeting" with Netanyahu. He answered that It's a phrase that is used in a serious way. “Bibi knows what I meant”, Biden added
3 \ Biden noted Israel has the right to defend itself & go after Hamas, but emphasized that Netanyahu "must, must, must" pay more attention to preventing civilian casualties in Gaza. "He hurts Israel more than he protects her (by killing civilians). This is a mistake," Biden said

NEW: Israeli minister Benny Gantz encountered harsh criticism & tough questions about the dire humanitarian crisis in Gaza & Israel's war strategy during his meeting with VP Harris & National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan on Monday. My story on @axios axios.com/2024/03/05/isr…
Why it matters: Gantz, who is considered a more moderate member of the Israeli war cabinet, absorbed a lot of the frustration the White House has with the Israeli government right now, a U.S. official told me
The strong messages Gantz received in private, which were accompanied by stronger public criticism from the Biden administration in the last 48 hours, signal the White House has lost its patience and is ratcheting up pressure on the Israeli government

1 / במהלך פגישותיו של השר בני גנץ בוושינגטון אמש הוא שמע מסגנית הנשיא קמלה האריס ומהיועץ לביטחון לאומי ג'ייק סאליבן מסרים חריפים וביקורתיים מאוד לגבי המצב ההומניטארי בעזה והעובדה שישראל אינה עושה די בנושא הזה, כך לפי מקורות ישראלים ואמריקנים שמעורים בתכני הפגישה
2 / למה זה חשוב: גנץ הופתע מעוצמת הביקורת והדאגה ששמע מבכירי הממשל בנושא המשבר ההומניטארי בעזה. "יש פה קושי משמעותי שצריך לראות איך מתגברים עליו", אמר מקור ישראלי שמעורה בתכני הפגישות
3 / מסקנה נוספת עמה יצא גנץ מהפגישות בבית הלבן אתמול היא שביקורו בוושינגטון התרחש חודשיים מאוחר מדי. בראייתו היחסים המתוחים בין הבית הלבן לבין נתניהו ויועציו לא אפשרו לגבש הבנה מספקת בממשל האמריקני לגבי כוונותיה של ישראל ומדיניותה

1 \ Update on the Israel-Hamas hostage talks: The Israeli negotiations team is expected to return from Qatar tomorrow if there is no significant progress in the talks on the deal for the release of the hostages in Gaza, two Israeli sources familiar with the matter told me
2 \ An Israeli source said the original plan was for the negotiators to return to Israel on Thursday, but if there is a breakthrough, talks can be extended. Later today it will be decided whether there is enough progress that justifies keeping the team it in Doha
3 \ In the last three days, the Egyptian and Qatari mediators went between the Israeli delegation and Hamas representatives in an attempt to bridge the gaps. CIA representatives are also in Qatar to accompany the talks and present their own mediation proposals
